Event 99: Those Old Familiar Faces
With a limited turnout today due to the return of the dreaded Polar Vortex, the field is comprised mostly of players who basically live at the Borgata already.
Nonetheless, we've managed to find a few players who we know and love. Longtime tourney pro Mickey Appleman is here, as is Borgata reg Alyson Parker, who just chopped a side event along with a few other players to pocket a cool $4,000.
David Heck was also spotted trying to build another stack, fresh off of his 3rd place performance in last night's Event 8 ($250,000 Guaranteed Deeper Stack NLHE Re-Entry). Heck took home $36,389 for his deep run last night, and after a marathon final table that lasted nearly eight hours, Heck is back for more.
Finally, Cotton Snuffer is playing yet another tournament, and after watching the man known to his tablemates as "Heisenberg" dominate the early events here at the Borgata Winter Poker Open, we fully expect him to be a force here today.
