So you're looking to play in the Borgata Open Championship Sept. 15-20, but that $3,300 + $200 buy-in has you a little worried.
Well, no worries mate.
Borgata has a full slate of satellites at the Borgata Poker Open to help you earn your way into a seat at the championship tables. In all, six satellites are scheduled starting Friday Sept. 13.
That first satellite, starting 3pm Friday, Sept. 13, is also the most - how shall we say this - cost effective. The $175 + $25 No Limit Hold'em tournament will send one in twenty players to the championship. In other words, if 100 players are in, the top five finishers win seats.
The odds of winning a seat go up as the buy-ins go up.
Another five satellites begin Saturday Sept. 14 and Sunday Sept. 15. The championship is a double Play tournament with two starting days, so satellite winners on Sept. 15 start the championship Sept. 16.
Here are the scheduled qualifiers for Sept. 14 and 15:
Event 45: Sat 9/14 4pm $ 350 + $ 50 Championship Qualifier No Limit Hold'em (~ 1 in 10)
Event 46: Sat 9/14 7pm $ 700 + $ 50 Championship Qualifier No Limit Hold'em (~ 1 in 5)
Event 47: Sun 9/15 12pm $ 350 + $ 50 Championship Qualifier No Limit Hold'em (~ 1 in 10)
Event 48: Sun 9/15 4pm $ 700 + $ 50 Championship Qualifier No Limit Hold'em (~ 1 in 5)
Event 49: Sun 9/15 8pm $ 500 + $ 50 Championship Qualifier No Limit Hold'em (~ 1 in 7)
