4 min read
New Jersey

From July 24-31, PokerStars NJ hosted a 10-event series dubbed the NJ City Tour with each event named after a city in the Garden State. Not surprisingly, the biggest event on the schedule and of the weekend, the $400 NJ City Main Event, was tagged with the state's gaming hub, Atlantic City.

New Jersey's "Bortzork" outlasted a field of 217 entrants to ship the NJ City Tour Main Event to collect an impressive $16,641. Notable players on the final table included Jamie "moosedeer17" Reyes (second - $12,206), Angel "Chr0meKing" Lopez (fourth - $6,917), and Michael "DellaBarca7" Dellabarca (sixth - $3,992).

Dellabarca had an even bigger haul on WSOP.com NJ and 888poker NJ when under the screenname "mdb77" he shipped the late-night $10,000 Fierce Warrior for $4,357.

Also on PokerStars NJ, "MrA.Iverson3" banked $9,382 ($4,256 prize pool + $5,126 in bounties) after claiming an outright win in the NJ City Tour 9 - Newark: $200 NL Hold'em [Progressive SuperKO, 6-max], $25,000 Gtd. Two former No. 1 ranked New Jersey tournament players according to PocketFives.com in Keith "donnysack" Donovan (third - $2,674) and Jeremy "FunkyJesus" Danger (fifth - $1,645) also appeared on the final table.

Both Donovan and Danger went on to appear on final tables in other major tournaments on Sunday. Donovan added $980 to his weekend's haul with a fifth place finish in the $10,000 Fierce Warrior under the screenname "T1mB3y_B33F", while Danger appeared on three more final tables including the PokerStars NJ Nightly Stars (fifth - $964), the WSOP.com NJ/888poker NJ $10,000 Warriors�� Opening Strike (seventh - $538), and the WSOP.com/888poker NJ $50,000 The Ultimate Warrior (9th - $935).

Speaking of the $50,000 The Ultimate Warrior, once again it produced a huge winner when "imsayin1" shipped the tournament for $14,535. Just missing out on the victory, but also reaping in nice cashes wereFred "BiggDaddy" Farrell (second - $8,479), Michael "SnakePlisken" Bees (third - $4,845), Michael "myGAME" Lavenburg (fifth - $3,230), Hung "welcomedonk" Truong (sixth - $2,692), and Jason "LuckDuck" Lawhun (eighth - $1,292).

Lavenburg added to another big day on his poker resume with a third place finish worth $4,484 under the screenname "pay4medsch00l" in the partypoker NJBorgataPoker.com Sunday $40k Championship Bonus, a tournament won by "FRIELnGood" for $9,440.

Meanwhile, many well-known players scored big in the WSOP NJ/888poker NJ $30,000 The BIG Deal. Bob "SLHalper" Taylor navigated through the star-studded final table to win the top prize of $13,975.
