The field continues to grow here in the early levels of the 2021 Bar Poker Open Championship NLH. There are plenty of familiar faces taking their seats and we spotted three Bar Poker Open Champions amongst the sea of players.

Jesse Gutierrez from Kontenders poker in Austin Texas was the 2018 Borgata BPO champion earning $23,250 along with the Bar Poker Open Championship trophy.

Just a few tables over sits Caryn Bustos (Pub Poker Arizona) who was the 2017 Las Vegas Bar Poker Open Champion earning over $40,000 and the trophy.

As we made our way to the front of the tournament area we spotted Basil Congro (Eastern Poker Tour) putting his chips to work. Congro was the 2018 Bar Poker Open Champion earning $50,000 along with the BPO trophy.
