Seat 7: Jonathan Borenstein, Teaneck, NJ, USA �C 2,200,000
Jonathan Borenstein has already been to a PokerStars branded tour final table. In 2015, he finished seventh in the LAPT Bahamas Main Event for $51,540. Today, that prize represents only a fraction of Borenstein��s winnings.
He��s accumulated $2.3 million in cashes through a decade of live circuit grinding and has notched four six-figure payouts, setting a new career high in January with a $368,324 score in a $5,000 tournament in Atlantic City.
Borenstein��s previous three $100,000+ results, however, came in small buy-in events, indicating his prowess in large player fields. Perhaps the biggest testament to that is his eighth place in the massive Colossus event, in which he outlasted more than 21,000 entrants.
