On Monday, the first-ever New Jersey Championship of Online Poker (NJCOOP) became history at PokerStars NJ after Jesse "ROU$EY" Elliot won the NJCOOP-40: $500 NL Hold'em [Main Event,2-Day Event], $200,000 Gtd for $38,380. Elliot just about called his shot, when on the PocketFives New Jersey Poker Community page he announced before the start of the second day, "Everyone who made Day 2 of the main, let's send these PokerStars pros the f*** home. Let's go baby!"
Elliot proved what he was made of during the NJCOOP, as not only did he win the NJCOOP Main Event, but last weekend he also took first place in a heads-up deal with Chris ""MoneyNJ800" Moneymaker in the NJCOOP-21: $350 NL Hold'em [Sunday Special SE], $75,000 Gtd for $17,818.
