It was another huge weekend for online poker players in New Jersey with the the third edition of the Garden State Super Series (GSSS) wrapping up its 43-event schedule. At least $800,000 was guaranteed to be rewarded during this online poker festival from Oct. 11-25 on partypoker NJ and BorgataPoker.com.

The biggest event over the weekend, and in the GSSS III, was the GSSS #39 — $150,000 GTD NLH Main Event, which generated a $152,800 prize pool with 764 players ponying up the $215 buy-in. New Jersey's "selsk32285" scored big with an outright victory in this tournament to collect $27,219. Other top finishers in this event were "dgago003" banking $19,558 for second place, "BeastfromEast" snagging $12,033 for third place, and Brian "pure_reason" Wood helping himself to $9,320 for fourth place.

The GSSS #40 — $75,000 GTD NLH High Roller ended in a heads-up deal where "TheGyph278" won $22,652 as the official winner of the tournament, while "stingerbell24" banked $19,000 as the official runner-up. Other notable players to outlast the 89 entrants to pony-up the $1,060 buy-in to make the final table included Jay "Jonuzi" Deutsch (3rd - $11,748), Jesse "NoXcape" Elliot (4th - $9,879), Daniel "mj23style" Sewnig (5th - $8,188), Michael "Gags30" Gagliano (7th - $5,073), and Darren "kinginthenorth" Elias (9th - $2,314).

Over in the WSOP.com NJ/888poker NJ Sunday $30,000 Guarantee, it was "HoboJoJo" outlasting a field of 193 players to win $9,640. New Jersey's "mdubsdeezee" took second place in this tournament for $5,624.
