Updated Chip Counts (Full)

Just three tables remain now, with 23 players spread out amongst those tables. Below you will see updated counts for those 23 players.

Menzer Wins Massive Flip to Double

Blinds: 3,000/6,000

Mike “MistaMenza” Menzer kicked off the action with a raise, and "Lisaj416" reraised in the big blind. Menzer four bet shoved all in for 230,000 and change, and "Lisaj416" made a big call with {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}. He was flipping against the big slick of Menzer, and he shot out to the lead following the {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop. No three would come, and Menzer scooped a monster pot to vault into the top five.

Final Payouts For Event #9

A total of 92 players came out for this $320 buy-ins event, making for a prizepool of $27,600. The final 14 players will finish in the money, all locking up at least $427.80. First place will walk home $8,142 richer.

The Big Stacks in the Final Level of Registration

"E.J.D" has recently separated himself from the rest of the pack, as he now has more than double anyone else in the event still. The 15th level has just kicked off, which means registration is just about to close.

Vanauken Gets Lucky to Double Through Lupo

Blinds: 2,000/4,000

Eric “alwaysliquid” Vanauken and Daniel “centrfieldr23” Lupo got into a raising war preflop that saw all of Vanauken's chips go into the middle with pocket jacks. However, he was well behind the {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} of Lupo, and that would stay the case on the {3-Spades}{2-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop, and {q-Clubs} turn. However, the {j-Spades} slammed down on the river, giving Vanauken a two outer for a massive double up.

Dan Buzgon

You might recall that In early 2019, Daniel "leinad" Buzgon signed on as a BorgataPoker.com Sponsored Pro – one of three alongside Michael “Gags” Gagliano and Katie Stone.

“It took a little bit of time to get all the paperwork and stuff like that,” Buzgon previously told PokerNews of becoming sponsored. “It was in December when it started but wasn’t official until just before the Borgata Winter series. Duties include mainly playing a lot online, promoting the site, and trying to get new players on the site.”

According to HendonMob, Buzgon has more than $2.3 million in lifetime live tournament earnings since 2007. He’s a four-time World Series of Poker Circuit ring winner has played for big money before. In 2001, he finished third in the WPT Borgata Poker Open for $335,433, and last year he finished fifth in the WPT Borgata Winter Poker Open Main Event for $202,942. He also finished fourth in the 2012 WPT bestbet Jacksonville for $94,624.

Additionally, Buzgon is a beast online where he’s amassed more than $3.1 million in earnings, of which $435,457 has come on BorgataPoker.com where he plays under the screen name “leinad.”

"KevinDurant" Scores Roller Coaster Double

Blinds: 1,800/3,600

Three players limped in for 3,600, before "KevinDurant" moved all in for 73,000 and change. It folded to "Efeneyeguy", who called for a bit less than half his stack.

"KevinDurant": {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
"Efeneyeguy": {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

"Efeneyeguy" was well behind, but that quickly changed after the flop came {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. A third ace came on the turn to strengthen the lead for "Efeneyeguy", but out of nowhere, the {j-Diamonds} completed the board, giving "KevinDurant" an unlikely full house, and a big double up.
