They have moved the Main to the weekend this time (starts Friday) so it would be good to know what side events are going to be available in the week preceding it.

I wish these schedules would get posted sooner. Lost all my saturday room comps in April, and I had them all last week.

The WPT Championship now starts Saturday Apr 25 with a 5-day duration; no re-entry. I'm assuming there will be only one Day 1.

Edit to add from Twitter:

@TabDuchateau: A couple of specifics for the WPT Champ.

90 minute levels all the way thru
50k chips to start.

Note to Tab:

Please consider adjusting either the day 1D starting time or day 2 starting time for Event 1.

Current schedule is as follows:
Day 1A: 4/14 - 11AM
Day 1B: 4/14 - 7PM
Day 1C: 4/15 - 11AM
Day 1D: 4/15 - 7PM

Day 2: 4/16 - 11AM

Having played in this tournament multiple times, I know that day 1D bag and tag will realistically only finish around 4AM.

Could you consider either starting day 1D earlier at like 5PM or starting day 2 later - say at like 1PM? With a 4-day format, starting day 2 a bit later should not be a problem at all.

please please please add some EPT style turbo 1k-2k events. Not every event 1k+ has to be 2+ days. I have attached links to two different EPT events that can easily be copy-pasted into the Borgata schedule.

Non-full time players like myself don't want to commit a ton of time to playing events. Just one one 1-2k turbo, and I think you will be surprised at the turnout and the player reaction. Also, no reentries ffs

TD Tab Duchateau tweeted a picture of the structure sheet. There are some errors in the General Rules section, a.k.a the Fine Print. I assume that with 90-min. levels there will be a break after each, not after every two. Also, no dinner break on Day 1 -- six levels, 9 hours plus breaks (I assume) five breaks, starting at 11:00 AM.

Surprised no plo on the schedule.

says you are able to enter for 8 levels, day one ends after level 8.. does this mean we can enter start of day2? before a hand is dealt
