Event 11: $450 H.O.S.E. will be off and running shortly on the side of the Event Center near the food court.
Last September, they played H.O.R.S.E., but this year have dropped Razz from the lineup. These four games will be played in eight hand rotation:
Hold’em
Omaha High/Low
Stud
Eight or Better (Stud High/Low)
Players get 20,000 chips to start and this is all Limit poker, so it takes a bit longer to get all the chips in the middle. Levels are all 30 minutes in duration.
Late registration and unlimited re-entries are available until the start of level 11 (at least 8:45pm). This is a one-day tournament, so they'll play until another Borgata Poker Open trophy has a new home.
Last year, Barry Levy won the HORSE-ament for the second time and claimed his fourth Borgata title in the process. There were 85 entrants in that two-day event, which was a freeze-out, and first place was good for $12,532.
