The 2020 Borgata Spring Poker Open Online Series $1,060 buy-in Event #17 High: $75,000 GTD High Roller attracted 67 runners, and after nearly six hours of play it was ��Eages�� besting ��judiallin�� in heads-up play to win the title for $14,175.
��Eages�� actually began the heads-up match down in chips and got quite low before getting all in preflop with ten-six suited and flopping a flush. Not long after, he made kings and threes to double through ��judiallin,�� who had kings and deuces, and in the final hand of the tournament both players made trip queens but the ace kicker of ��Eages�� sealed the deal.

Next to go was Jonathan ��jetsfan411�� Borenstein who failed to get lucky with ace-five against ��judiallin��s�� pocket eights, and then ��NoRecourse�� busted after running Big Slick suited smack dab into ��Turkeyleg��s�� pocket aces.
��Turkeyleg�� then dispatched ��Skip_2_My_Lou�� when his ace-king held against queen-ten, and ��Eages�� followed that up by getting there with queen-eight to eliminated ��TopCreature,�� who go it in good with ace-five.
��Turkeyleg�� then went from first to worst after a series of hands, ultimately getting unlucky with ace-eight against ��Eages,�� who made two pair with ace-seven. After ��Whosyourdoddy�� bowed out in third place, the heads-up match was set and ��Eages�� battled hard to close out the tournament.
