$500 + $60 Deep Stack NLH (Re-Entry)
$300,000 Guaranteed
Josh Supsak (Westchester, NY) is no stranger to Borgata and is no stranger to the chip lead. The full time pro finished 4th in Borgata's 2011 March Deep Stack for $36,000 and is looking for another deep run.
Supsak hits a set of 6s and the two big stacks are all in for a 270k chip pot. Supsak's opponent has top pair and the nut flush draw, but doesn't connect giving Supsak the chip lead.
Level 12 (800/1,600/200 ante) winding down.

Jason Wittlin (New Fairfield, CT) and his long night of cash games almost cost him a spot in today's 1,000+ player field. "I overslept and almost didn't make it," he says as the last player to enter the tournament.
Wittlin made it to the Poker Room in the early afternoon, but still had to wait in line. When registration was shutdown every player who wanted a spot was in the field.
"I knew it was going to be a big one," says Wittlin, who's playing in his first Borgata tournament. He works with his father in the auto sales industry and has been cleared to play. "I told him I was coming, plus he has to watch my dog."
Wittlin and Yosef Lider (Israel via New York, NY) were part of the last handful of players who helped fill up another tremendous Event 1 turnout

Event 1: Deep 6 During Level 6
$500 + $60 Deep Stack NLH (Re-Entry)
$300,000 Guaranteed
The term "deep 6" is a nautical term used to describe a submerged item that is difficult to recover at 6 fathoms (36 feet). Players with short stacks are getting a similar vibe in level 6 (200/400/50 ante) as it's the last level to re-enter the tournament.
Shorties are moving all-in looking to double-up or bust with an option to re-enter for a full 25k starting stack. One player who won't be doing either is Jason Warriner (Absecon, NJ) who busts with A9 against AQ.
"No re-entry, I'm already in twice," Warriner says disappointed that he's now busted for the second time and won't be entering a third. "Event 1s are always great, I wanted to at least bag chips."
In the mob world Warriner is now Deep 6 or dead in this tournament, but he's already eying up the 4 pm event ( $200 + $30 Deep Stack Semi-Turbo tournament). "That's poker," he says, "some days you run hot, others you can't get anything going."
All ins will be fast and furious during the next 30 minutes.

Nothing like getting an early double-up on the third hand of the tournament. "He gave me all his chips," says Antoine White (Baltimore, MD), "he didn't believe I had a king."
The flop comes down K 2 5 and all the chips are in the middle with White holding K 10 against pocket 9s. White winds up with trip kings and takes his stack to 50k, while his opponent heads to the re-entry line.
"Hopefully not," says White who doesn't expect to have to re-enter, "that's the plan."
White is looking to build off his 23rd place finish in one event from this year's Borgata Winter Poker Open. He's up to 78k as level 3 (75/150) continues.
