Event 20: 2nd Place - Burnitz

$260 + $40 + $100 Black Chip Bounty NLH (Re-Entry)

Matt Burnitz (Paoli, PA)
$6,867

Under ten hands of heads up play before Jim S. takes out Matt Burnitz (Paoli, PA). Matt took out thirteen players throughout the day for and extra $1300 in bounties.

Out of the 165 entries, amazingly Matt felted 13.

"This was the first bounty tournament I ever played in" said Matt.

Matt was happy to finish in 2nd especially after having only 43,000 with 29 Players remaining. He was card dead and hanging on for 2 1/2 hours - fortunate to even make the money.

He's probably kicking himself for folding middle pair on the board, especially since Jim S. showed a bluff. Matt would have won that hand and crippled Jim - instead he had to battle from the short stack.

Burnitz is not a nit - he is a superior Borgata Bounty Hunter!
