Day 1 of Event #12: $340 OE H/L 8 Starts at 3 PM!
The 2020 Borgata Winter Poker Open will now see the only OE event of the series come into play as Event #12: $340 OE H/L 8b kicks off at 3 p.m. local time.
This event was not in last year's BWPO line up but did find a spot in 2019 Borgata Fall Poker Open and it was a hit, having 67 players partake in the OE festivities. Hal Rotholz took down the event for $7,408 after besting a star-studded final table that included the likes of JJ Liu, Roland Israelashvili, and Gary Kosakowski.
After finding such success, the tournament director has elected to make this a two-day event with Day 1 ending at either 2 a.m. or when just 16 runners remain. Tournament players will begin with 20,000 in chips and the late registration period will remain open until the start of level 10.
All Day 2 returnees will come back on Wednesday, January 22, to battle it out until an eventual champion is crowned, taking home the prize money and a brand new Borgata trophy.
Look for PokerNews to bring you all of the live updates in this event from 7 p.m. local time as all of the OE action unfolds.
