Super Deep 6-Max Finale Underway at 12 p.m.
The final six return today for the $650 Super Deep 6-Max at the 2026 Borgata Summer Poker Open, with $41,150 and the title still up for grabs.
Giorgi Arveladze resumes play as the chip leader after bagging 4,495,000 (56 big blinds) at the end of Day 2. The Georgian spent much of the day near the top of the counts before pulling away on the final table to build a comfortable lead heading into the finale.
His closest challengers are Yuriy Kudrynskyy (2,810,000) and Ryan Syrko (2,610,000). Syrko vaulted into contention late on Day 2 after his ace-king improved against two players holding pocket queens in a huge three-way all-in.
The remaining finalists are all well within striking distance. Li Liang returns with 2,330,000, while Bin Weng (1,930,000) and Frank Costigan (1,880,000) complete a remarkably even final table, with every player starting the day holding at least 24 big blinds.
Cards are in the air at 12 p.m., with the BetMGM livestream beginning at 1 p.m. PokerNews will be providing live updates throughout the final table, with coverage following the livestream to avoid spoilers for viewers watching the broadcast.
