Day 4 - The 2006 WPT
18 September 06
Six Players Remain To Battle For A $1.5 Million Dollar
First Place Prize At The WPT Televised Final Table Set.
For the past three days, the big question at the 2006 Borgata
Poker Open dealt with the WPT televised final table. Who
would claim a seat? Which of the starting field of 540 would
play poker in front of millions of Americans? On day four,
six players emerged with the answer, and a real shot at
the $1.5 million first-place prize.
With World Poker Tour TV crews building the final table
set in the Borgata Events Center, the casino's actual poker
room served as the backdrop for day four. At 11 p.m. EDT,
the 27 remaining players gathered around the final three
tables, and play began in level 18 with $6,000-$12,000 blinds
and $2,000 antes.
The final chip counts were as follows:
1. Mark Newhouse - $7,025,000
2. Chris McCormack - $3,000,000
3. Chris Bell - $1,200,000
4. Blaise Ingoglia - $840,000
5. Anthony Argila - $700,000
6. David Sklansky - $665,000
