Rowe, 40, of West Windsor – who was diagnosed with breast cancer – was hoping to walk away with the top prize in the Ladies No-Limit Texas Hold ‘em tournament at the Borgata casino. Rowe planned on using her winnings to cover living expenses as she recovers from a mastectomy she is scheduled to have later on this month.

Rowe’s plans were shattered after 65-year-old Abraham Kortotki took home the 1st place prize of $20, 982 (LOL). He claimed he entered the women’s competition after being eliminated from another tournament.

Abraham Kortoki is the man!!

Abraham Kortoki is the man!!
