Event 18: 2nd Place - Grogan

$350 + $50 Big Stack No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

 Brian Grogan (New York, NY)
$13,668

Grogan can't overcome a 7 to 1 heads up deficit and finishes in second place to Franco Bonacci. 

On the final hand Grogan's A♣ K♣ doesn't connect against the 7 7 of Bonacci who ends up with a straight on the river. "It was the first time I was at risk the entire tournament," says Grogan.

"I had a big stack at the final table," says Grogan, who ran his stack to 1.8 million, "I would've have like to have won, but anything less than the top three would've been disappointing."

Grogan's second place finish for $13,668 goes along with his win in the H.O.R.S.E event ($7,605), the only two events he's played in the Borgata Summer Poker Open.
