In Level 36 with Blinds of 70,000/140,000 and an ante of 17,500, "Bluehaven" opened to 280,000 in the hijack and was three-bet to 1.05 million by "sri50k," who was on the button. "Bluehaven" thought for a few moments and called.
The flop was 
and "Bluehaven" went all in, effectively putting "sri50k" all in for less than a pot-sized bet. "sri50k" wasted no time calling.
"sri50k": 
"Bluehaven": 
"Bluehaven" had found their pair of jacks way behind "sri50k's" kings and the turn 
changed no part of that. However, the river 
was the prettiest card in the deck for "Bluehaven," giving them aces up to top "sri50k's" kings and send them to the virtual rail in eighth place.

BorgataPoker.com has a trio of Sponsored Pros, and one of them is Katie Stone, who has been active in the 2020 Borgata Spring Poker Open Online Series.
Stone has more than $176K in lifetime live tournament earnings including a career-bet $33,305 for finishing 378th in the 2018 World Series of Poker Main Event. In addition, Stone has three Borgata Open titles including the 2018 Borgata Fall Poker Open $300 Deepest Stack for $19,337, 2017 Borgata Summer Poker Open $300 Ladies Event for $2,867, and 2017 Borgata Fall Poker Open $300 Deepstack for $9,484. She also recently won the CSOP Borgata Winter Poker Open Event back in January.
However, where Stone has really thrived is online where she’s amassed more than $900K in lifetime earnings. Of that, $146,954 has come on BorgataPoker.com where she plays under the screen name “KatieStone.”
According to a Q&A she did with the Borgata Blog, Stone was born and raised in New Jersey, but after Black Friday in 2011, she relocated to Rosarito, Mexico in order to continue playing online. When New Jersey authorized Atlantic City casinos to offer online gaming within state borders, Stone moved back north to New Jersey and picked up where she left off — winning!
Recently, Stone took the initiative to create the Discord channel “Poker Peeps Affected By COVID19” and invited those in casino industry affected by recent shutdowns to join.
“I realized how tough it was going to be for everyone to keep up with everything and everyone, with so much changing so fast,” Stone recently told PokerNews. “So, I messaged my friend Cy Watson, who has been very active on social media as well regarding Coronavirus, asking him if he thought it would be a good idea to start a chat for people in the industry to be able to connect with each other for help.”
She continued: “I think the main thing poker players and everyone can do is to keep an open mind. Understanding that this is unlike any situation any of us have encountered before, and so thinking outside the box can go a long way. Taking the time to improve a skill, or learn a new skill whether it's a game or something else could be really beneficial not just financially, but mentally.”
In Level 35 with blinds of 60,000/120,000 and an ante of 15,000, "Bluehaven" jammed for 3.6 million under the gun and "DaCoolerKing" called all in for 1.3 million in the hijack. All remaining players folded.
"DaCoolerKing": 
"Bluehaven": 
The flop came 
to give "Bluehaven" a set of jacks. It also, however, gave "DaCoolerKing" four outs to Broadway. None would come as the turn 
and river 
completed the runout and "DaCoolerKing" took ninth place in the tournament as a result.

In Level 34 with blinds of 50,000/100,000 and an ante of 12,500, "misterkk" opened to 215,000 on the button and was three-bet to 715,000 by "TheKing411" in the small blind. "misterkk" thought for some time, activating their time bank before ultimately four-bet jamming for around 4 million. "TheKing411" quickly called.
"misterkk":
"TheKing411":
A king came on the flop 
to give "misterkk" even worse odds at surviving. The turn 
brought a flush draw, providing a glimmer of hope, but that glimmer died out quickly as the river completed the runout to result in their tenth-place finish from the tournament.
Meanwhile, nine now remain and are all at the final table with "TheKing411" holding a commanding chip lead after the massive pot.
