Borgata Spring Open - April 10-30 - Page 6 - WSOP and Tournament Circut

In my experience if you can get there to register between 9 and 9:30 its not bad, line starts getting bad around 10 and then gets ridiculous by 10:30. My guess is that it'd be the same for this.

This is accurate in my experiences as well. 9-9:45 or so you probably won't experience a wait longer than a couple minutes (maybe 5-10 people in line). By 10:15 or so, the line will start to build and by 10:45, it will be down past Wolfgang Puck and will likely take 30 or so minutes to make it through.

Fortunately, if you're patient, you'll get a seat because late registration is open for a long time in this tourney and the TD will make sure everybody in line at a certain point gets a seat.

The tournament will be held in the Signature room and the poker room. It is located next to Bobby Flay Steak.

Stan , the website states Forty minute dinner break after Level 8, How come the dinner break went from 1 hour down to 40 minutes?

Probably b/c of time constraints. How come you post in bold?

People complained abt the 1 hour dinner break so I am assuming they reduced to help appease the masses.

the 40 minute dinner break sucks in my opinion, there are usually lines everywhere you go for food, on top of that people like to shower at dinner break as well to freshen up for another session, people who complain about 1 hour dinner should go play cash games, we are sitting all day grinding a tournament, I think 1 hour is a fair amount of time to give players, every poker tournament usually has 1 hour dinner break, anyone else agree on this??

Thanks!

Hey all quick question. I'm playing in the 50k guarantee on Wednesday. Is registration at the poker room? I'm driving down wednesday morning and probably not getting to the borgata until 10am and i really don't mind waiting in a line however I don't want to miss any hands.

Tab,

I didn't get to see your last hand. Tough beat? I'm here covering the event for Poker Pro, I was the media guy that said to you "What's the Borgata's ruling on that?" when the table next to yours had a dispute. Mike Beasley is chip leader going into today's final table. I think he's had some success at Borgata before.
