The 2020 Borgata Spring Poker Open Online Series saw its first high-stakes no-limit hold'em champion crowned in the $330 buy-in Event #5: $15,000 GTD NLH Black Chip Bounty Rebuy, where "buckets44" topped a field of 142 entries to take home the first-place prize of $8,107.
The fifth event saw only 23 players start off the tournament but the numbers continued to pile in with 142 entries being tallied by the end of registration, though only 25 players remained at the start of Level 19.
From there, it took less than 20-minutes for the tournament to reach the money as the top 15 got paid and within a blink of an eye, the final table was reached.

"MarsRover" was the first to drop after their pocket tens couldn't win the race against "jeebs" suited ace-queen.
The next person to drop was "odo23" in level 27, followed by "GiantGenius" in level 28.
The next level saw three players drop from the virtual felt after "UFOLDIWIN" fell in sixth place, "SugarJ" in fifth, and one time chip leader "jeebs" go out in fourth place.
Level 30 saw the last two virtual bodies drop in short succession after "tc_ownz" fell in third place ($3,784), followed by "simlSgg" in second ($5,341).
