OH my goodness gracious. Ravi rasied to 700K and Billy moved all in over the top of Ravi. Ravi couldnt wait to call and slammed his K K down for the show. Billy then slowly turned over his meager T T . The board rolled out the Q 4 A 7 9 and this hand leave Billy Hill naked with only 30K in front of him. He is not lookin' good at the Borgata Winter Poker open.

Jason Hickey ran into the Aladdin on his magic carpet when Ravi and he got all in preflop. They were in there with some major power I am here to tell ya. Jason had the T 3 while Ravi the 7 3. Well, the board brought the 5 3 7 4 J and knocked Jason Hickey from, Stamford CT, clean outta here in 4th place for $46,305.

Johnny Green pushed all in preflop and is called by Billy Hill. Billy has the T 9 and Johnny the A Q. The flop brought the T T 2 giving Billy three tens. The turn and river brought the J and Q respectively and Johnny could not be saved. Johnny Green from Fredricksberg, VA takes 5th for $39,690.

Ravi limps UTG, around to Billy in the small, he limps and with Jason in the big blind, he checks his option. The flop comes the K Q 7 . Checked to Ravi, it is incumbent on him to bet, and he does for 200K. All other run like crazy.
