BORGATA POKER OPEN Sep 8-25 - Page 2 - WSOP and Tournament Circut

Does anyone have any experience with this type of tourney? First couple of levels are 10 minutes. Seems like it's just better to enter the tournament at level 7 or 8. Would this tourney be worth playing?

31 Thu 17-Sep 7pm $80 + $20 WPT Championship Qualifier (~1 in 10 into Event 32 or 35)

What does this mean please. Those two events are dif buyins.

Also, is it safe to assume event 32 survivor is 1 in 10 ship $5k?

Has anyone stayed at the Red Roof Absecon? Stayed there one night previously and thought it was fine. Seems like it might be worth considering for a long trip given the free wifi & (I think) free fitness center.

Sept still tuff finding cheap housin in AC...but, ck CraigsList +AirBnB. Ive always found smthn. Cant justify payin Borgata prices anylonger. Found a.great 3.bt townhouse, on the water for a steal a year or so agom..been there.ever since.

How long is late registration for the main on 21 sept? Going to palace game on 20 sept in London and it's basically impossible to get on last flight to Philly, but I can get one Monday morning that lands 11:40a and then get a car from there.

Nm found a 830p flight to JFK that gets in 1145p Sunday so now I can drop off my massive bags at home first too. Seems I'll be taking adderall on my bday but that's borgata sorted.

Will the heads up event sell out prior to the day it starts?

No idea what youre saying because as it is written:

Tournaments 32 or 35.

Highlighted are the tournaments that you are eligible for when u qualify. One is a $560 BI, one is a $400 buyin. Hense, what does this mean being the seats have dif BIs?

Certain amount of cashers get entry to cheaper tourney and another certain amount of players qualify for higher buyin?

Ex: 10 spots pay...1-5 get $560 BI seat to event 32, 6-10 get $400 BI event 35 seat?

it's like a multi step quilifier to another satellite. you are playing to get into a bigger buyin satty.

Cool thanks. I registered for that heads up event earlier today. Haven't got any email or anything from Borgata, and for some reason my credit card was only charged $90 (do they only charge the rake and you pay the rest of the buy in in person?)

Yes, I understand teired satties...

So I guess its safe to assume that the voucher/lammer you recieve will be worth at least $560 and if I choose to play the $400 BI, I will recieve $160 back.

Also last year there were 5 day 1 flights. This year only 4, so there will be bigger pressure on the 4th and final flight.

When do you pay me the $10,000 you owe me?
