Chaplin, Back for Another Run

The official count is 285 for the 1k. Event #9 (6-max) Champion, Maurice Paradis (Jewett, CT) is playing and smiles when asked if he's ready to go back-to-back after winning Tuesday, "sure, why not," he says.

One interesting table features local player Manny Patel (Burlington, NJ) and Borgata regular Joe Chaplin (Manhattan, NY). Chaplin's had success at Borgata, finishing 6th in the $1,500 at the 2008 Poker Open, and had a third place finish in July at the WSOP, after being as short as 325 chips.

Chaplin's glad to be back at Borg and likes the bigger events, "I wish they had a few more 2 and 3 k(s), but overall I love coming here," he says after taking down a pot with a turned flush to build his stack to 20k.

Level 3 (75/150) underway.
