World poker tour s03e03 Borgata Poker Open 1/8


Referred to by the legendary Doyle Brunson as “by far the classiest place I’ve been in Atlantic City,” the beautiful Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa lived up to that lofty rep when it played host to one of the toughest and youngest WPT final tables yet, for the Borgata Poker Open. 302 players, up from 235 last year, sported the $10000 entry to take their crack at a prize pool of $3000000 up a staggering $2000000 from last year! With the winner taking home just north of $1000000, as well as a guaranteed $25000 seat at the season-ending WPT Championship event, this was a battle royale from the first hand. In Seat 1, Tough Toronto transplant and tour vet, Daniel “Kid Poker” Negreanu, making his 3rd WPT final table, in 3rd chip position with $860000. In Seat 2, last year’s WSOP 3rd place finisher, brash young pro Josh Arieh, in 2nd chip position with $1390000. In Seat 3, dangerous and unpredictable poker pro Phil Ivey at his 4th WPT final table, in 5th chip position with $466000. In Seat 4, journeyman pro “Syracuse” Chris Tsiprailidis, in 4th chip position with $784000. In Seat 5, confident and quiet young pro David Williams, last year’s WSOP runner-up, chip leader with $2039000. In Seat 6, Illinois stock trader, tenacious sole amateur Brandon Moran, on the short stack with $449000. Antes and blinds started at $3000, $12000, and $24000.
