If you can post a link to a search engine, someone can use it to get to Borgata's website, click on poker, Spring Open, Event 1 Details.

Then they can post a link to the structure for Event 1.

How does that sound?

Does anyone know for sure if these tourneys will be in the Ballroom or the Signature room. No one from Borgata will answer this. I guess they don't read this forum anymore.

That can't be the only reason? Seems like other structure adjustments would be made instead of immediate antes.

It's the standard WPT structure (e.g., Commerce LAPC M.E.) with the first two levels omitted and a 50K initial stack.

Sounds like there's not a lot of time to count the chips and make sure the total is correct before Day2. But they obviously don't give a damn about things like that.

no i'm not mad. why would i be mad if you are not going? my post insinuates it's preferred you're not going. I'd be madder if you were.

If you're going to use a umad, at least use it in a proper form.

Does anyone have any advice on getting old tournament receipts? I've called the borgata a bunch of times and no one there seems to know what to do.

seeing as you've typed it 15 times in the borgata thread in NVG which i've read you are incorrect here. Your usage of the umad is a disgrace to everybody who likes to use the umad as a troll. You're a disgrace to humanity.

Why would you want old tournament receipts?
If it's for taxes, all you need is your win/loss statement.

You can go in person to the poker cashier and they will print out old tournament receipts on the spot. I've done this with receipts that were over a year old with not much hassle...takes about 10-15 minutes

My win/loss statement doesn't include tournaments I played there for some reason. Any other ideas?

Well, Carlos appears to be an experienced player whose advice is likely dependable. But I would call and speak directly with the poker room cashier manager before driving down to assure that the service is still offered.
On Monday, at Delaware Park, I watched as a player showed his tournament receipt to the dealer and then proceeded to throw it in a trash can.
I tried to bite my tongue and I didn't say anything but all I could think about was that the day may arrive when he might need that receipt and others to offset possible winnings at tax time.
