Event 19: 2nd Place - Pofuk Ying

$200 + $30 Deep Stack No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

Pofuk Ying (Seattle, WA) 
$19,538

Ying's erratic and unpredictable play comes to an end when he loses to Cuong Phung heads up.  

On the final hand Ying's A 3 is dominated by A 9 and Phung hits a pair of nines to win the title.

"He was tricky to play against," says Phung about Ying. "He got pocket aces and ace-queen and was hitting hands.  It was hard to tell when he had a hand."

Ying's runner-up finish earns him $19,538.  This is his second Borgata second place after finishing 2nd in the 2010 Borgata Winter Poker Open for $26,000.
