Full Tilt Poker representatives John D'Agostino and David Singer each had strong showings at the Borgata Poker Open, finishing fourth and sixth respectively out of a field of 515.
D'Agostino earned the biggest payday of his professional career, collecting $349,685 for his fourth-place finish at the World Poker Tour event, while Singer earned $249,775 and his sixth final-table appearance of the past year.
Before last week's finish, D'Agostino's biggest payday came at the 2004 Championship Poker at Turning Stone where he collected $250,000 for second place. D'Agostino has scored three other final table appearances within the past year, including a third-place showing at the Heads-Up Limit Hold 'em tournament at Bellagio in December 2004.
Prior to his sixth-place finish at Borgata, Singer's largest win was $120,000 for his ninth-place finish at the 2003 World Series of Poker Main Event. So far in 2005, Singer has made a total of six final table appearances, including a fourth-place finish at the WSOP's $2,500 Short-Handed No-Limit Event.
