Über eine hervorragende Beteiligung durfte sich die World Poker Tour bei der WPT Borgata in Atlantic City freuen.
Mit 1.179 Entries lag die Teilnehmerzahl deutlich über dem Vorjahr – und das obwohl parallel die WCOOP stattfindet, an der man bekanntlich von amerikanischem Boden aus nicht teilnehmen kann.
159 Spieler traten zu Tag 3 an und es wurde noch einmal kräftig ausgesiebt, so dass am Ende nur noch 30 Spieler übrig waren.
Hatte am Vortag noch Ari Engel an der Chiplead geschnuppert, musste er dieses Mal nach zwei bösen Händen gegen Ende sogar seinen Stuhl räumen. Für Platz 31 gab es ein Trostpflaster von $14.700.
Insgesamt geht es bei der WPT Borgata um über $3,7 Millionen Preisgeld und der neue Chipleader heißt Matt Waxman.
Der Amerikaner setzte sich vor Simon Lam und Farid Jattin an die Spitze, weitere bekannte Namen im Feld sind Paul Volpe, Jesse Sylvia und John Racener.
