Ryan Meyers & Wooyang Lin

Ryan Meyers (sb) and Wooyang Lin (bb) got to the river with a board reading .  Ryan checked, Lin bet, and Ryan took a minute or so before deciding to release his hand.  Lin made the courtesy show of his for trip Kings as he collected the pot.  He’s playing about 30,000.

Ryan is still in fine shape with about 105,000, about three times the starting stack.  He’s having a good summer with four cashes (out of 13 events) in June’s DeepStacks Challenge series and three cashes already in this Summer Open series. In fact, he scored his best live cash of $22,484 for finishing 2nd in the Bounty Deep Stack (Event 3).

Deeper Stack players are back from their break and play has resumed.

A couple of Borgata regulars are in action today, trying to break their shut-outs.

Robert Flacco

Robert Flacco cashed three times during June’s DeepStacks Challenge series, including one 5th place finish.  He’s been shut-out during this series, however, with only two trophy events remaining.

She Lok Wong made a deep run in the Championship, making it to Day 2 but busting out short of the money.  He has lifetime earnings of more than $668,000, but has also been shut-out during this series.

Anthony Kietrys

Anthony Kietrys has turned up in today’s Deeper Stack.  We haven’t seen much of him recently, but back in 2015 during the Borgata Poker Open, he won the 2nd Annual Mike Sica Memorial Seniors Event, earning nearly $12,000.

He made a return visit to the Seniors Event final table in April of 2016, but that 2015 win remains his best live cash.

Howard Wolper

Howard Wolper cashed in back-to-back events the previous two days and when combined with his cash in the Almighty last week, he’s added three more to his total.  The Wolper record now stands at 114 tournament cashes at Borgata!

His social media must be blowing up, since he’s riveted to his phone today, but he’s back on the felt going for three in a row and another notch on his record.  He’s got two final events, this one and the closer, Event 20, tomorrow, to try to up his number again during this series.

The start of the 2017 Borgata Summer Poker Open is just a few days away with the Ladies Go First NLH event on Sunday, starting at 11am.  Onsite registration opens two hours before the start of the tournament (9am).  Then it’s the $1 Million Guaranteed Kick-Off event starting Tuesday at 11am with the first of five starting flights.   Online registration is available for all Main Events through Friday, July 6th.  Onsite registration begins Monday, July 9th, at 12 noon and will remain open daily from 8am to midnight throughout the series.

The kickoff event and it’s $1 Million Guarantee will bring out big crowds, so there are five starting flights spread across three days.  Flight A begins Tuesday, July 10th, at 11am.  Flight B runs Wednesday at 11am, overlapping Flight C starting at 4pm. Flights D & E are Thursday at 10am and 5pm, respectively.  This event is a Best Stack Forward and Unlimited Re-Entry event, so players are encouraged to register early and register often!

Zachary Schwartz – 1st Place – 2017 Summer Open Kick-Off Event

Last year it was Zachary Schwartz who bested the field of 2,268 entrants to claim 1st place and just over $160,000 in an adjusted payout agreement following a five-hour heads-up battle with Larry Abrams.

The first Saturday Series event is also the Cabot Creamery “Put a Bad Beat On Hunger” charity tournament, raising money for the New Jersey Food Bank – Southern Branch.  Last year they drew 421 total entries and raised $4,210 for the New Jersey Food Bank – Southern Branch.  Last year they drew 421 total entries  to create a prize pool of $142,930. In addition, $4,210 was raised for a great cause.  An adjusted payout agreement resulted in Jeremey Barnett taking home $11,915 and the trophy.  The $3,500 WPT Borgata Poker Open Championship seat went to Mike Machalani.  This year, both the 1st AND 2nd place finishers will earn a $3,500 entry in the 2018 WPT BPO Championship, courtesy of Cabot Creamery!

To celebrate Borgata’s 15th Birthday, the Tournament of Champions will highlight the second Saturday of the series, with previous Borgata Open Champions invited to battle for a winner-take-all prize of $25,000.

Of course the $1 Million Guaranteed Borgata Summer Poker Open Championship begins Sunday and Monday, July 22nd and 23rd, with starting flights A and B.  Registration for the Best Stack Forward and Unlimited Re-Entry event remains open until the start of Level 11 on Day 2 (July 24th) about 2:15pm.

Abraham Korotki – 1st Place – 2017 Borgata Summer Poker Open Championship

Last year saw a record 600 entrants and the Live-Streamed Championship final table was historic with three World Series of Poker bracelet winners doing battle with Borgata’s winningest regular, Abraham Korotki.  2015 WSOP Main Event winner Joe McKeehen got heads-up with Korotki, but came up short of the win.  Korotki claimed his record ninth Borgata title and more than $359,000.
