Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa (Atlantic City, NJ) -- FAQ in OP, updated 2021.08.16

lmao. the floor at parx has always been great and light years better than the nonsense that goes on at borgata.

ask 3 different floor people for a ruling at borgata and you'll get 3 different rulings with a good chance that none of them are correct.

has nothing to do with gaming, NJ gaming is way stricter than Nevada which is just a bunch of good ol boys, yet most NJ rooms are terribly run

there must be some other Parx after all, at Parx I'm normally playing the floors are some of the best in the country

also can only say good things about Philly Live floors

I've never played at Philly live so I can't speak to them personally but I've heard good things.

And you're right it has nothing to do with gaming.

What is "most"? Doesn't NJ have a total of 3 poker rooms?

You probably know better than me, I've only played at Borgata for the past decade so can't really rag on some place I haven't visited in forever, but back in the day none of them impressed me

Any talk on when theres gonna be a next big series?

Copy thanks

Borgata Winter Poker Open should be in January, was Jan 2 - 26 last year.

But the Fall Mini series will have a handful of events and schedule should be released shortly as per twitter.

The fall mini series schedule is on Bravo.

November 11-13 is a $500

November 13-16 is a $2500 8 max

November 15 is a $515 double black chip bounty

November 16 is $365 Saturday series

November 17 is a $570 survivor and also a $570 PLO

Some satellites also announced on Bravo

Anyone know if they’re ever going to post the last weekend of the 100 Days series to Hendon?

Last years really seemed to drag on and that's with what really a 4 year layoff after their last real series. Not surprised they cut it down by a week.

Word is they’re expecting an unusually low turnout this year

based on what exactly?

Must be based on the $600 1 million guaranteed event 1 and $400 1 million guaranteed Almighty they're having. Also must be based on the fact that the winter open always has the highest turnout no questions asked.

I like $600 b/i better than $800. I think this will bring more player and more re-buy than $800. GTD is only headline attraction. Total prize pool is based on total # of entries.
I think this is north east’s one of the biggest events. It will draw big crowds!!

Good Luck All

I think $600 for the opener will bring bigger field as well. I was on the fence at $800 but for $600 I can play that and the Almighty ($400 instead of $500 now as well) instead of choosing one or the other. Both will crush the GTD I expect regardless

Even though I never played a mix torny live, I love the addition of these events for the future. I would love to play the B.E.A.S.T or 2-7 triple draw

Does anyone know if Borgata will be matching/is expected to be matching Caesars tier again in January? Diamond Elite at Caesars, but the thought of paying for parking at the Borg while playing 2 5 and some of their bigger tourns is pretty tilting lol

mgm is still matching Caesars for 3 months at a time.

also if you do have mgm gold it's good till 1/31.

I thought the mgm tier match cutoff was Sept 30. That's what website says. I assume it opens up again sometime next year. Unless the website is wrong.

How are 2/5 games during weekdays here ? Thinking of visit starting on a Monday thanks

Garbage imo.

Does any limit hold em run here anymore? I haven't been back in a long time but a decade or so ago it seemed like there was 20/40+ every day.
