The $3,500 World Poker Tour (WPT) Borgata Winter Poker Open final table was originally set to play out for April 1, 2020, but due to the pandemic, it was delayed for over a year. On Sunday, the final six players from a 1,290-entry field congregated at PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas to play to a winner.
Toronto’s Veerab Zakarian, 25, began the final table as the chip leader and he rode it all the way to victory to capture a $674,840 top prize and etch his name on the Mike Sexton WPT Champions cup.
