Robert Brobyn (button) moved in on the river with a board reading 
and after some thought, his opponent in Seat 5 called all-in.
Brobyn tabled 
for fives-full and his opponent mucked, got up, and headed for the exit. That pot took Brobyn's stack up to about 75,000.

Two levels have elapsed and Championship Flight B players are being rewarded with a 15 minute break.
Olivier Busquet is making his 2019 Borgata Fall Poker Open debut here today in Flight B of the Championship event.
The traveling poker pro has titles from around the world, but his first big win was right here at Borgata. During the 2009 World Poker Tour Borgata Poker Open, he won the $3,500 Championship event, emerging victorious from a field of 1,018 entries to take the top prize of $925,514.
Since then, he's gone on to amass nearly $9 million in tournament earnings.

Mike Dentale is a fixture on the felt here at Borgata, but the Brooklyn businessman also travels the country playing tournaments as well.
He has three Borgata titles to his credit and one of those was in the 2015 Borgata Fall Poker Open. He won the Championship event that year, topping a field of 557 entries to claim first place and $336,331.
With lifetime tournament earnings of more than $1.98 million, reported over the last 12 years or so, he's proven that he knows the poker business as well as the window business he runs back home.
