Flashback: Albert Croteau Conquers Marathon BPO Atlantic City Championship Final Table
March 7, 2026 @ 11:48 AM
The camaraderie of the Bar Poker Open was on full display last November at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa, with the final table lasting more than seven hours to determine a winner in the $400 Atlantic City Championship.
Albert Croteau was feeling the support from his home league, the Eastern Poker Tour, as he battled for the biggest moment of his poker career.
"Those are my people," Croteau explained after defeating Anton Saich heads-up to earn the victory. "They were rooting for me on the live stream and just watching from their game that they were playing. So that just makes me feel great, the community that we got."
Croteau rode that inspiration to the largest score of a career with results dating back to 2010, taking home $30,000 and the BPO trophy.
