Welcome To the WPT Online Borgata Series $1,060 Main Event
The 10-day WPT Online Borgata Series powered by partypoker US Network has been a huge success through its first eight events and another huge field is expected to turn out for Sunday's $1,060 Main Event, which already has over 250 entries with more than three hours to go before pay begins at 5 p.m. ET.
Starting stacks have been ramped up to 250,000 for the Main Event, though Phased Qualifiers have been running throughout the week to see a number of players enter play with a stack size other than that. Six players will enter the day with above a starting stack, and "supremetny" will start with the chip lead by a huge margin after qualifying with a stack of 698,959.
Registration will remain open with unlimited re-entries available through the first 15 levels of play, all of which are 12 minutes in length. After the three-hour late registration period, levels will increase to 15 minutes until the end of Level 34 at which point they will be raised to 20 minutes apiece until a winner has been declared.
Day 1 will play until the final table of eight has been reached, and those who find themselves still alive will return Monday night at 7 p.m. ET to play down to a winner. Along with the first-place prize, the tournament champion will also receive a Hublot Big Bang E Titanium timepiece, valued at $5,200!
Players such as Eric "alwaysliquid" Vanauken, Ross "thehebrewhammer" Gottlieb, and Michael "IIIIIIIIIIIII" Haberman have been among the series winners thus far and all three are already registered and ready to get in on the action, as is June's WPT Online $400 Main Event Winner David "TheKing411" Coleman.
PokerNews will be providing coverage all the way to the end, so be sure to stick around.
