Saturday proved to be the busiest day of the entire 2019 Borgata Poker Open with five tournaments crowning winners. In addition to Aaron Massey taking down the Almighty Stack and Kevin Javier emerging victorious in the $1,090 6-Max, three other side events wrapped up.

Zach Gruneberg the Bounty Hunter

Event #17 of the Borgata Poker was the $1,060 Purple Chip Bounty NLH. There were 232 total entries and Zach Gruneberg (pictured above) was the last man standing in the early morning hours. Gruneberg took home $31,502 and his second Borgata Poker Open trophy of the series. He previously won Event #3: $500 Black Chip Bounty for $56,073.

"This is unreal, I don't know if anyone's ever won two bounties, especially in the same series."

This is Gruneberg's third Borgata Poker Open title and he has now earned over $1,800,000 throughout his career.

"This is unreal, I don't know if anyone's ever won two bounties, especially in the same series," Gruneberg said with a smile as he posed for his winner's photo.

He is certainly having a series to remember and he is off to get some rest before taking his seat in the BPO Championship.
