Among the familiar faces seated just inside the Event Center, we found 2019 Summer Poker Open Championship winner Jackob Datashvili. Last Summer, he came out on top of a field of 514 entrants in that $2,700 buy-in event to claim first place, $276,129, and his first Borgata title.
He's struggling here in the early levels, down to about half what he started with, currently sitting on about 16 big blinds.
