Event 14: 2nd Place - Rocha

$1000 + $90 No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

Alex Rocha (S. Setauket, NY)
$24,008

Congratulations to Alex Rocha for his 2nd Place finish after a grueling four hour heads-up session against Vinny Pahuja.

Alex definitely wanted to be called winner and take home the trophy.
Although Alex is a winner, tonight he just fell a little short.

The final hand of the night went down as follows.

Both players checked the rainbow flop of J-6-2.

Alex fired out 265,000 on the turn card 5 and Vinny called.

Alex announced all-in after a 9 hit the river - Vinny quickly called.

Alex flipped over AA and Vinny caught two pair on the river with J-9.
