New Jersey player "sansara52" was the Garden State's biggest winner over the weekend, after he took home $10,000 by finishing on top of the partypoker NJ/BorgataPoker.com $50,000 Guarantee. The runner-up was "brownmagic", winning $6,855 for his efforts.
This tournament provided value to everyone who cashed with a $6,155 overlay. The tournament failed to meet the $50,000 prize pool guarantee as it attracted only 237 players.
The WSOP.com/888poker NJ Sunday $35,000 Guarantee also featured some added value after the 160 entrants didn't meet the guarantee, creating a $5,400 overlay. Steven "RiVerSpiKer" Edwards was victorious in this tournament, taking home $9,450. "LOLOLOLOL" won $5,513 for finishing in second place.
As was the theme for the weekend, the 888poker NJ $10,000 Big Sunday also failed to meet its posted guarantee after attracting just 48 players to generate a $1,120 overlay. New Jersey poker player "jdgambler" took advantage of the smaller-than-usual field, winning $3,200 with the victory.
