Welcome to New Jersey's Next Poker Millionaire
To conclude our coverage of the Borgata Winter Poker Open, we're on hand to cover a special event run by the Borgata: New Jersey's Next Poker Millionaire (NJNPM).
NJNPM is a one-table sit-n-go contested by eight players who qualified online. As for the prize structure, let's just say it's slightly top-heavy. The champion will claim a gaudy prize package of a World Poker Tour Alpha 8 super high roller seat worth $10,000, a WPT World Championship seat worth $15,000, two WPT entries to Borgata events worth $3,500 each, 52 tournament entries to the Sunday 50k worth $10,400, a bundle of live tournament entries at the Borgata worth $8,000, and $859,600 in credit to the player's online account.
The rest of the runners will have to console themselves with the following prizes:
| Place | Prize |
|---|---|
| 2 | $25,000 |
| 3 | $10,000 |
| 4 | $5,000 |
| 5 | $4,000 |
| 6 | $3,000 |
| 7 | $2,000 |
