Get to Know BorgataPoker.com Sponsored Pro Katie Stone

Katie Stone
Katie Stone

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.”

"kp0707" Wins With Aggression

In Level 17 where blinds were 500/1,000, action folded around to "kp0707" who limped in from the small blind and "roystalin" checked their option from the big blind.

The {10-Clubs}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop was checked to "kp0707" who fired out 1,500 and "roystalin" called.

"roystalin" checked their option once again when the {7-Spades} appeared on the turn and "kp0707" put out a 5,000 bet only leaving 6,000 behind. The bet was too much for "roystalin" as they mucked their hand giving the pot to "kp0707".

"PSL16197" Falls To "Shadyant"

Action was in Level 16 where blinds were at 400/800, "PSL16197" open-jammed for 2,237 from the cutoff and was called by "Shadyant" on the button.

"Shadyant": {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}
"PSL16197": {k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades}

"PSL16197" was behind and nothing changed after the {7-Spades}{5-Spades}{q-Diamonds} flop that gave both players a gut-shot staright draw.

The board paired with the {q-Hearts} on the turn and the {2-Spades} river sealed "PSL16197" fate as "Shadyant" scooped the pot with ace-high.
