Finding Success at Borgata
Level 3
: 100/200, 200 ante
Since he won the 2017 World Poker Tour Borgata Poker Open Championship event and more than $789,000, we've seen a lot more of Guo Liang Chen in the tournaments here. He took third place in the 2018 Summer Poker Open Tournament of Champions Freeroll, earning another $8,000. That was a tough field �� an invitational freeroll made up of former Open Series Champions.
Seated next to Chen is Valerie Novak, who we only get to see for the biggest events. She made the final table of this event back in 2016, finishing 9th for $23,717 (her best live cash).
The random seating process has landed these two next to each other and despite the big disparity in their poker histories, they've both found success at Borgata.
