Maybe it is steep, but that's just the poker economy for ya nowadays. Many $300s have $50 entry fees, so $350 +50 works out better for us. Borgata also needs a lot of man-power to pull off these smaller buy-in events, but the entry fees are standard for today's industry. We also have the benefit of a great tournament staff running good events with the best structures you'll find at these lower buy-in levels. Most places in my knowledge don't give you any sort of comps for playing MTTs. At Borgata you can count the $10 food vouchers as comps, as well as the 15% off coupons that come with every buy-in if they still do those.

Speaking of structures... Stan/Tab, any idea when we will get those on the website?

Thanks.

Are all reentry events basically multi day rebuys?

Here is the schedule showing the number of days for each event and whether it's a re-entry or a "double play." Technically, those are different from rebuys; the latter permit buying another stack after busting for the original buy-in amount without an additional entry fee. (Note: here I am using dated terminology in which "entry fee" denotes a payment to the venue that doesn't go into the prize pool, and "buy-in" denotes a payment that goes into the prize pool.) Re-entry means you can literally re-enter after busting (during a specified initial period), including payment of another entry fee; "double-play" means you can re-enter on Day 1B after busting on Day 1A.

Details beyond the schedule, including re-entry periods, blind structure, etc. for each event are not yet available.

just register for day 1a. If you bust out, you can register for day 1b the night before when there are no lines.

Sorry guys. Completely came out the wrong way. I have learned that sarcastic humor does not translate well onto a keyboard. Anyway, I left the dude a private message and apologized. My intentions were not what you think they were. I'm really a good guy. If I had any friends you could ask them.

Ok dude. The community here screens questionable ethics characters before entering Jersey tournaments, as we are held to a high level of said values in there.

(Redsox fans though..)
