New Jersey Man Wins Borgata Poker Open

Event six of Borgata's 2005 Poker Open came to a conclusion late Saturday night as Woodside Park, New Jersey's Michael J. Nargi defeated Tamarac, Florida's James M. English for the title. After surviving a field of 323 top players in the $2,500 buy-in event, including several of the biggest names in poker, such as David "the Dragon" Pham, Nargi elevated his game in the final rounds and scored a big victory.

For finishing first, Nargi took home the biggest prize of the 2005 Borgata Poker Open to date with cash that almost doubled the payout of the first-place finishes of several of the previous tournaments. Nargi collected $250,325 and a gold diamond-encrusted Borgata bracelet for winning this grueling 30-hour marathon.

English, who should feel little disappointment with his second-place finish, collected $137,275, and third-place finisher Jason M. Langianse took in almost $70,000 as payouts sky-rocketed for this high buy-in event. Fourth-place finisher, Sal J. Giambrone of Staten Island, NY, collected $56,525 for his efforts.

The 2005 Borgata Poker Open action continues on Sunday with event seven, the Ladies Only, No Limit Hold'em tournament. Over 400 women are registered for the event and are sure to bring their own style and flavor to the male-dominated sport.

Plenty of fireworks will light up the action as the best female players from all over the country try to take home the prestigious title and first-place cash prize.
