Borgata.com sent out an email about freerolls running during BPO Final Tables.

Tune in to get the Password. FAIL.

Announcers are announcing the passwords. First one "Ebony".

However, there are zero $500 hourly freerolls on the site.

Same old Party/Borgata.

Finally righted it at 7:00 PM after 4 tries the Livestream freeroll went.

At the top of the hour the announcers announced the freerolls with the pass words - Ebony, Scott, FinalTable at 4 PM, 5 PM and 6 PM. Have no idea if it was case sensitive, because they didn't say.

Announcers never were given the headsup that there was a problem. In the comments, Borgata did say they were having problems and the 7 and 8 would be ok.

42 participated for the $500.

So, Never Mind.

Wait! It isn't over.

The 8 PM was posted on the Borgata site. The Live Stream went on break.

The break is going past 8. They interview Tad, the Borgata Tournament Director. They move the 8:00 to 8:05. Three players guess the password and sign up.

Just before 8:05, the Tournament disappears, never to be seen again?

The announcers, who announced the 4 Previous Passwords totally forget about the 8 o'clock Password. BTW the 7 Password was Event1.

At 8:25 Ebony announces the 8:00 Password - Borgata. She asks is it still going? Some one tells her no. Subject dropped.

And now ends the BPO Livestream Freerolls experiment. 1 out of 5 ran. $500 paid versus the $2,500 that should have been paid.

BTW the live stream was ... a live stream with too much comment, not enough personalization of the players, extremely quiet final table with no characters.

Been skimming through it on youtube, I was very impressed with the quality of the live stream especially considering it was a first attempt. There were some dead moments, but it was 8+ hour live stream, not a 60 min wpt episode, thats how poker is. Salzberg is super interesting guy imo, but I expect gags and Jamie K to be more entertaining next week.

Also they started hammering beers HU. A+ for that.
