The $500 PLO/NLH saw an overlay in its $15,000 guarantee, drawing 31 entries before ending in one of the quickest finishes of the series.
The turning point came on the bubble, when PokerNews live reporter Brett Slezak saw his run come to an end in fifth place. Rather than battle it out for the title, the remaining four players opted to divide the prize pool, with George Jannes officially taking the victory.
It's a milestone result for Jannes, a familiar face in Atlantic City poker rooms. After previously recording two runner-up finishes and a third-place finish at Borgata, he finally has his first recorded live tournament title.
