Welcome back to PokerNews coverage of the WPT Online Borgata Series, brought to you by the partypoker US Network. The second day and second event of the series sees a $10,000 GTD NLH R+A on the schedule, featuring a $109 buy-in.
Anybody within the state of New Jersey may get in on the action across any of the three platforms of partypoker US, Borgata Poker and BetMGM Poker.
Unlimited rebuys ($100 each) are available within the first 15 levels of the tournament, all of which will last 10 minutes in length. Late registration will remain open for the entirety of the rebuy period, at which point it will close and all players in contention will have the opportunity to add-on for another $100. All entries and rebuys get players 50,000, while the add-on will put another 75,000 onto all players' stacks who wish to do so.
Levels will increase to 12 minutes in length upon the closure of the rebuy and late-registration periods at the beginning of Level 16. A detailed look at the betting structure has been provided below.
