QuoteMan Wins Big In All-Women Poker Tournament

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J (WPIX) - A man who took first place in a women-only poker tournament in Atlantic City is getting a lot of heat from the second-prize female winner.

Nicole 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. Rowe intended to use her winnings to cover living expenses as she recovers from a mastectomy she is scheduled to have later this month.

Rowe's plans were shattered after 65-year-old Abraham Kortotki took home first prize, winning $20, 982. He claimed he entered the women's competition after being eliminated from another tournament.

Organizers for the all-ladies event said they did not know that a male had entered and said any participant over 21 years of age is legitimate.

"Borgata offers specialty tournaments, including the Ladies event," Joe Lupo, the gaming hall's senior vice-president, said in a statement.

"In the spirit of this event, it was our hope that only women would have participated, as has happened in the past. . . . However, given legal requirements, we must allow anyone who is over the age of 21 the opportunity to participate."

Rowe, along with 260 other women, shelled out more than $300 to enter the competition. The New York woman admitted to a local publication that she was upset that Kortoki didn't want to split the winnings with her.

Kortoki claims he is using his prize money to donate to three charities - including one dedicated to breast cancer. He said he entered the competition after seeing more than five other men register online.

This one's even awesomer.

QuoteProsecutors say an Essex man accused of posing online as a lesbian stricken with cancer to entice teenage girls into relationships has been indicted on child pornography charges. A Baltimore federal grand jury indicted 38-year-old Douglas Patrick on Thursday for possession of child pornography and coercing minors to engage in sexually explicit conduct in order to produce child pornography. Federal prosecutors said Patrick pretended to be a cancer-stricken 18-year-old girl on social networking sites, where he solicited the girls to send him pictures of their genitalia. Patrick is being held on related state charges.
