HEADLINE: Borgata Poker Open Final Table is Under Way

Body:
The WPT's Borgata Poker Open will wrap up this evening, and Bluff Magazine will bring you updates on all the action throughout the day. The tournament began on Friday with 540 players, including many of the world's best - one of whom is still alive in the hunt for the $1.5 million + first prize.

David Sklansky, author of The Theory of Poker, considered by many to be one of the greatest poker books ever written, has made his way to the final table. Sklansky (pictured) hasn't won a major tournament since he captured the WSOP Main Event in 1983, and if he's going to win this title he has some serious catching up to do.

Mark Newhouse, a high-stakes online player, comes into this final table with a massive chip lead over the field, and is the clear favorite to win after his impressive play over the past few days.

Chris McCormack, who finished 7th at the 2004 World Poker Finals, comes to the final table in 2nd place; ahead of Chris Bell, 3rd place finisher at the 2005 Mirage Poker Showdown.

Blaise Ingoglia and Anthony Argila round out the final six, but find themselves in the same boat as Sklansky, with a significant chip deficit.

Here are the chipcount and the payouts for the final table.

Chip Counts:

Mark Newhouse 7,025,000

Chris McCormack 3,000,000

Chris Bell 1,260,000

Blaise Ingoglia 840,000

Anthony Argila 700,000

David Sklansky 665,000

Payouts:

1st - $1,519,020

2nd - $802,985

4th - $366,660
