Winter Poker Open at the Borgata

Wednesday January 25, 2006

Currently, the Winter Poker Open is going on at the Borgata in Atlantic City. Today, the 6th event, a no-limit hold'em $1,500 buy-in event will begin, and tomorrow they're having the Ladies-only event, which will only set the females back $300. This weekend is when the action really heats up with a $2,500 buy-in No-limit Hold'em event on Friday, and the championship $10K event starting off at 11 am on Saturday. The Borgata will be holding satellites to the big event until Friday, so you don't have to pony up the whole buy-in yourself. The Borgata is a great tournament location and if the Borgata Poker Open is any indication, the field should be packed with the best of the best. See the male and female poker pros I caught there last time I was there.

Even if you don't want to be part of the event, Atlantic City is a great place to play poker, and our latest guest article discusses where the best places are to play poker in Atlantic City are. For all the poker locations, check out which casinos in Atlantic City have poker rooms.
