Who Will Make the Top Six to go to Las Vegas in April for the $3,500 WPT Borgata Winter Poker Open Championship Final Table?
Welcome to the final day of the $3,500 WPT Borgata Winter Poker Open Championship. Well, it��s not actually the final day but it is the last day of this tournament which will take place in the Borgata Hotel, Casino & Spa as play will continue until there are six players remaining. The final six will battle it out for the wonderful first-place prize of $674,840 at the HyperX Esports Arena in Las Vegas at the Luxor on the live-streamed final table on April 1, 2020.
After claiming the Day 2 chip lead, Patrick Serda has also taken the Day 3 chip lead with 6,260,000 in chips which is worth a whopping 209 big blinds at the start of the day. He is followed in the chip counts by fellow Canadian Veerab Zakarian with 4,075,000 in chips. Brian Altman also finished on the podium late last night with 3,880,000 in chips. Other players who have bagged an above-average stack are Peter Vitantonio, Stephen Press, Paul Snead, Jesus Martinez, Derek Marmen, Jorge Confesor, and Bin Weng.
But there��s still loads of other players to take into account as 28 players return out of 1,290 entries with Samuel Taylor, Brandon Hall, Ari Engel, Donald Maloney, Nathan Russler, Matthew Waxman, James Anderson, and Sandeep Pulusani in the running too. All 28 players are guaranteed at least $19,886 but will all be eyeing up the pay jumps as each player gets sent to the rail.
When the players return at noon local time, they will play Level 24 which features a small blind of 15,000, big blind of 30,000, and a big blind ante of 30,000. Level duration will remain at 90 minutes each with a short break after every level. A dinner break is likely to take place after the fourth or fifth level of play but everything is subject to change.
