BWO2012: PRELIM EVENT WINNERS AT BORGATA

SOURCE: THEBORGATA.com

While the final three battle it out in the Main Event, let's take a look at two Borgata Winter Poker Open Prelim Events that qualified for PTPR Points distribution...

EVENT 20 - PURPLE CHIP BOUNTY NLH EVENT
Manh Nguyen seemed in control during most of final table play - somehow, something went wrong and when the smoke cleared, 2011 Venetian Deepstack Side Event winner Nguyen (2011 PTPR Rank: 835th) was picking up a cheque for second place.

Main Event final table participant (spoiler alert, Parker finished seventh in the Main Event) Brock Parker was the tournament winner, collecting over 75K in the process. Parker (2011 PTPR Rank: 689th) will collect his second PTPR Score at the Borgata this week, once the Main Event is completed.

Popular pros Josh Brikis (2011 PTPR Rank: 1213th) and Jamie Kerstetter (2011 PTPR Rank: NR) collected their first PTPR Points of 2012.

Matt Brady, Daniel Buzgon and Russell Crane finished in the money in the event.


EVENT 22 - NLH SIX-HANDED
Micheal Ferrell collects the first big paycheque of his live tournament career. After a few small cashouts, Ferrell collected over 70K in the 1K NLH Six-Max event.

Fifth place finisher Justin Schwartz earns his second PTPR Score of 2012. Schwartz (2011 PTPR Rank: 2024th) scored at a PCA side event earlier in the month.

Will "The Thrill" Failla cashed out in the event.
