Ryan “simlSgg” Hagerty Strengthens His Chip Lead

Blinds: 6,000/12,000

Following a raise from chip leader Ryan “simlSgg” Hagerty on the button, "mr.baseball" moved all in for about 230,000. Hagerty called with {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}, and he was flipping against the two red jacks of "mr.baseball." The flop of {10-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} missed both players, but the {k-Spades} on the turn nailed Hagerty. The river was the {5-Hearts} and Hagerty scooped yet another pot to push his stack over 1.4 million.

Stone Spikes a Nine to Double

Blinds: 4,000/8,000

"TheTerminator1" raised it up to 17,600, and next to act, "bbmkbb1" reraised to 52,000. Action folded to Katie "KatieStone" Stone, and she four bet shoved for 228,000. "TheTerminator1" folded, but "bbmkbb1" quickly called with pocket queens. He was dominating the {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} of Stone, but not for long, as the fop came down {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Spades}. Suddenly, Stone was in great shape to scoop a massive double up, and though "bbmkbb1" picked up a flush draw on the turn, he wasn't able to make it on the river.

Tony "ToNiSiNzz" Sinishtaj Talks About WPT Online Borgata Series Win

In September, the World Poker Tour Online Borgata Series powered by partypoker US Network wrapped up its 10-event series with the conclusion of the $1,060 Main Event, a tournament that drew 440 entries and offered up a $432,700 prize pool.

The final table of eight battled it out for a $77,349 top prize, plus a Hublot Big Bang E Titanium watch valued at $5,200, and after 3.5 hours of play, it was Tony "ToNiSiNzz" Sinishtaj coming out on top to claim his second WPT-related title. Sinishtaj previously won the WPT Seminole Rock Poker Showdown in Season XVI for $661,283.

Sinishtaj sat down with PokerNews' Chad Holloway to talk about the win.

He quickly called with {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}, and he was dominating the {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} of "MoneyMagnet08." The flop of {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} gave "MoneyMagnet08" new life, but he was not able to get anymore help from there, sending him to the virtual rail.
