The 2019 Borgata Fall Poker Open Begins with Bankroll Boosting Event #1: Super Survivor!
The 2019 Borgata Fall Poker Open (BFPO) will feature 23 Main Events from November 5-23, and today PokerNews begins the first of 18 straight days of live updates starting with Event #1: $560 Super Survivor No Limit Hold'em.
For the first time ever, this Borgata Open series starts not with the usual bang, but rather with a whisper. The $500,000 GTD Kick-Off has been pushed back to start on Wednesday (Event 3) and today we'll have two one-day events to warm up.
The first is a non-trophy event and begins at 11am in the Signature Room. This Super Survivor will have multiple winners, so no trophy is awarded. Approximately 1 out of every 10 players will collect a bankroll-boosting $5,000 cash!
Players begin with 20,000 chips and Levels 1-16 are 30 minutes long. Levels 17+ will last 40 minutes. Late registration and unlimited re-entries are available until the start of Level 9 (about 3:30pm). They’ll play until only 10% of the field remains and those will be our Super Survivors!

For players who need a backroll refill later in the series, two more Super Survivors will run on Friday, November 8th at 5pm (Event 5) and Friday, November 15th at 5pm (Event 15).
Later today at 3pm, Event #2: $340 Pot Limit Omaha gets underway and that's a one-day event, so the first trophy of the series will be awarded tonight (or early tomorrow morning).
