Event 10: $660 NLHE Reentry
Day 1 Started
Good morning and welcome back to Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa for the 2014 Borgata Spring Poker Open. The 10th main event - a two-day, $660 buy-in reentry tournament - is about to start in a half hour over in the poker room, and with the BSO Championship Event down to 45 players, there are certain to be some big names in the field.
Each player in this event will begin with 15,000 in chips, and Day 1 will either end at 2 a.m. EST or when only 18 players remain. The event will resume on Friday at noon, where a winner will be crowned. The first 10 levels will be 40 minutes in length, and every level after that will be 50 minutes.
PokerNews will bring you coverage of the event from start to finish, with the updates ramping up as the day comes to a close in the Championship Event. The ever popular MyStack App will be available for all players.

Las Vegas' Justin Young has just joined the fray here at the 2014 Borgata Spring Poker Open, and we believe this is his first event of the series.
Young has over $3.2 million in career live tournament earnings, and has already reached two final tables in 2014. Young's largest score came in 2008, when he finished runner-up in the WPT Doyle Brunson Five Diamond World Poker Classic for $936,760. He has never cashed in an event here at Borgata, per Hendon Mob.
