With the elimination of Josias Santos in eight place, the final seven players or a 292-entry field in Event #7: $230 Deeper Stack NLH began to discuss an adjusted payout deal. The stacks were counted down and it didn't take long for them to come to terms.

Steve Nooralian, who was holding a slight chip lead at the time of the deal, took first place earning $7,872 and his second Borgata Poker Open trophy.

"Now I have a Deeper and a Deepest Stack Borgata Poker trophy," said Nooralian with a smile.

Peter Zarriello was playing nearly an identical stack and earned $7,871 for his runner-up finish.

Baksh Spikes a Three

Nate Stokes raised to 100,000 and Wazir Baksh moved all in for 600,000. It folded back to Stokes who called turning over {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts} but he was dominated by the {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} of Stokes.

The dealer fanned the {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop and there was a three in the window improving Baksh to bottom set.

The {9-Clubs} and {6-Hearts} improved Baksh to a full house to earn him the double up.
