Evebt 19: One Year Ago

$1500 + $150 No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

Level 1: Blinds 25/50

Vinny Pahuja - 2012 BPO $1,500 MixMax Winner

Last year's Borgata Poker Open featured two events with $1,500 buy-ins.  The first was a Mix-Max with tables that went from eight-handed to seven-handed to six-handed as play went on.  There were only 134 entries and Vinny Pahuja (Hicksville, NY) was the winner, taking $58,491.

Michael Brown - 2012 BPO $1,500 Bounty Winner

The second one was a Bounty event.  That tournament saw 248 entries and was won by Michael Brown (Ontario) along with $67,358.

Today's event is neither a Mix-Max nor a Bounty event, just straight-forward full ring No Limit Hold'em, so we can't really call either of these players a 'defending champion', but we'll see if either of them turn up today.
