Event 9: Jeffrey Duvall - 1st Place

$400 + $50 H.O.R.S.E.

Jeffrey Duvall - 1st Place - $14,319

Jeffrey Duvall from London, England is Borgata's first ever H.O.R.S.E champion.

He takes back to the UK the 2011 Borgata Poker Open trophy, the blue shark optic sunglasses, and $14,319 in US dollars.

Deuces were wild on the final 7-Card-Stud hand as Jeffrey's trips clobbered Ron "Schifty" Schiffman's pocket sevens in a very quick heads-up match.

Duvall confessed the key to his victory was a combination of big starting hands and winning every all-in.

Not to say it was easy as Jeffrey found himself short-stacked a good bit and hat to bounce back several times. Seemed like smooth sailing at the final table as our Borgata regular nursed a big stack and had his hands hold up time and time again.

Duvall says hi to his two daughters in CT and his three grandkids.


Congrats again to Jeffrey Duvall who rides off into the sunset on his high-horse as the first ever Borgata Hotel & Casino H.O.R.S.E champ.
