Event #21 $230 Deepstack NLH drew a total of 247 entries creating a prize pool of over $47,000 and when the smoke cleared Peter Zarriello was the last man standing.

It was a long night of tournament poker that wrapped up in the Event Center in the late-night hours.

Zarriello entered heads-up play against Benjamin Datsko with more than a 2-1 chip deficit but managed to double up early in the match and he never looked back.

"I was pretty card dead for much of the day, but I was on fire at the final table, I won this one for Kobe," Zarriello said as he posed for his winner's photo.

Zarriello took home the second-largest tournament score of his career earning $13,420 and his first Borgata Poker Open title.

Today's new one-day post-lim trophy event is another Deep Stack featuring a 30,000-chip starting stack and 30-minute levels for the duration of play. Late registration and unlimited re-entries are available until the start of Level 11 (about 4:45pm). Play gets underway at 11 a.m. here in the Borgata Event Center!

This event carries a $25,000 Guarantee on total buy-ins as well, which should bring out a nice crowd. This exact event wasn't on the schedule last year, but in its place was a $230 Deep Stack that included a Black Chip Bounty and $30,000 guarantee. There were 241 entrants and the eventual winner was Deric Williams, who took home $10,401* and the BWPO trophy after a heads-up deal.
