Flop: 10c 6h Kh
Patrick Eskandar opened the pot for 24,000 and was called behind by Brian Lemke. The action was then to Mohammad Siddiqui (Pembroke Pines, FL) who three bet to 75,000. Both Eskandar and Lemke called behind.
Turn: 8h
Lemke checked and Siddiqui fired out a bet of 135,000. Eskandar called and Lemke folded afterwards.
River: Qd
Siddiqui acted quickly while putting out a bet of 305,000, and Eskandar was agonizing over his decision. He was left with only 190,000 if he folded, and took about four minutes taking his decision. Eskandat finally decided to call and showed his A K before Siddiqui could do anything. Mohammad's cards went in the muck and Eskandar became the chip leader in the tournament.

There are tons of players throughout Borgata Poker Open events that play poker for a living, and others that just consider it a recreational hobby. We've had a chance to sit down with some well known pros, as well as the chip leader going into the WSOP Main Event final table. I wanted to sit down with with someone that plays well and has results, but that everyone may not know.
Alan Kraut (Doylestown, PA) was nice enough to sit down with me and discuss his situation, and I found out some really interesting things. With ~130 players remaining Kraut was still alive in the WPT Borgata Poker Open Championship, and sat just below chip average.
Alan played a less than average stack miraculously throughout the latter stages of the championship event, and sat 50,000 below average when players made the money. Unfortunately Kraut got extremely unlucky just moments ago as he had a chance to win a 270,000 pot with A A all-in pre-flop against As Js.
He couldn't recover from that hand an finished the WPT Borgata Poker Open Championship in 97th place for $7,258.

Oboodi could not find any help and would be out in 112th place. And as that hand was ending....
There was an all in at Table 6. Albert Smith (Ithaca, NY) was standing up and asking for his hand to "Hold one time!!" He was up against Andrew Lee (Asbury Park, NJ):

Allen Cunnigham
Allen Cunningham had been crippled earlier when he lost the hand to "Prince." Since that hand he has managed to build his stack over chip average. We walked over during a hand between Cunningham and WPT Parx runner-up Stephen Reynolds. The hand was on the river with a board of Ac 3c 4s Jd 5c, and Allen had bet out 65,000 after Reynolds had checked. The pot was about 150,000 and Reynolds was doing all the talking he could to get something out of Cunningham. Allen stood stone faced and Reynold folded his hand face up, showing A 10. Allen has over 360,000 now, and on the other end of that spectrum we have just lost John Allan Hinds.
