2019 Spring Poker Open Recap

POSTED BY: kaelaine

|CATEGORY: 2019, Event 1, Event 10, Event 11, Event 12, Event 13, Event 14, Event 15, Event 16, Event 17 Championship, Event 18, Event 19, Event 2, Event 20, Event 21, Event 22, Event 3, Event 4, Event 5, Event 6, Event 7, Event 8, Event 9, Pre-Event

The 2019 Borgata Spring Poker Open came to a close in the early morning hours of Saturday, April 20th and it was a terrific series all around.  Between Main and Secondary events, millions in prize money was won and 19 Borgata Open trophies awarded.  A complete list of Main Event winners is below.

David Jackson – 1st Place – 2019 BSPO Championship

David Jackson took home his second Borgata trophy while booking his largest career score when he won the BSPO Championship event, coming out on top of a field of 505 runners after four days of play.  The $304,929 he earned for the win pushed his career earnings past $1.8 million.  His wife Gloria was able to watch the final table play out live at Borgata, but many others watched via live stream on Twitch and Facebook Live.

Alex Rocha – Two-Time Open Series Kick-Off Winner, 2011 and 2019

The series started off with a bang a couple of weeks earlier as Alex Rocha became the first player to ever win two Open Series Kick-Off events!  His first was way back in 2011 when he won the Winter Poker Open Kick-Off event, earning $150,850 for 1st place in a field of 1,472 entrants.  Now he’s got his second Borgata trophy for the Spring Poker Open Kick-Off, besting a field of 2,199 runners to earn $180,591*.

As if that wasn ‘t enough, Alex went on to make the final table of the Almighty Stack $500,000 GTD event about a week later, coming very close to taking another title.  His run ended in 5th place ($34,438).  Then to cap off the series, he cashed in the Championship event as well.  If there was a Player of the Series award, I think it would go to Alex for his stellar performance during this Spring Poker Open.

Lorinda Lisitza – 1st Place – PLO

Lorinda Lisitza was the only woman to win an open event during this series, taking the Pot Limit Omaha title and $4,795*.  Alida Veliu went back-to-back in Borgata Open Ladies events, winning the Ladies event in this series ($2,953) after winning the same event during January’s Winter Poker Open ($3,325*).  This was her third Ladies event win at Borgata — her first was back in 2009.

Alida Veliu – 1st Place – 2019 BSPO Ladies event

That wraps up the 2019 Spring Poker Open!  Mark your calendars now and make plans to join us for the Summer Poker Open, to be held July 9-26.  Follow @BorgataPoker on Twitter for updates on the tournament schedule when it is released.
