Day 1 Started
While Day 2 of the Almighty Stack trudges on, a new tournament is slated to kick off at 1 p.m.
Event #12: $1,090 Six-Max NLH ($150,000 GTD) is a two-day tournament and will start players with 20,000 in chips. Late registration and re-entries will be available through the break at the end of Level 10. Levels 1-8 will last 30 minutes and after that will switch to 45 minutes in length. At the final table, they'll jump one more time to one-hour levels.
Last year this tournament cruised by its $150K GTD by drawing 239 entrants, which resulted in a $239,000 prize pool. Shaun O'Donnell of Succasunna, New Jersey ultimately prevailed to win the title and accompanying $61,434 first-place prize.

The SixMax NLH event always kicks off Championship weekend here at Borgata and they’re now underway in the front of the Event Center. This event serves as a great warm-up for players planning to play the Championship and the big buy-in draws the serious pros.
This is also a great "palette cleanser" for the players who have been eliminated from the Almighty, currently playing down to the money in the rear of the Event Center.
