THE ZEEK

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

Miguel Borrero just knocked out Kenny Nguyen which continues his hot run into the Day 1b chip lead. But the story goes further than this.

Borrero has a friend standing nearby. Kenny Nguyen knows this man well because he knocked him out of the 2011 World Series of Poker Main Event. Although we missed the conversation, Borrero promised to knock out Nguyen for his buddy as soon as he realized that they were at the same table. Sure enough, the {10-}{10-} of Borrero held against the {a-}{4-} of Nguyen and redemption had been earned.

Borrero's buddy wanted to make it clear though. It's Miguel "Zeek" Borrero and he is guaranteed to take it down this year after finishing 18th last year. When asked where the nickname "Zeek" comes from his friend responded, "Jersey City, the hood!"
