Please note that the schedule is subject to change! Make sure to check the Borgata poker tournament calendar to stay updated on the latest information.
The popular Borgata poker series, Survivor, deserves a special mention and we highly recommend checking it out. Taking place from April 12th to 21st, the series includes five distinct poker tournaments. Buy-ins range between $125 and $450. The prize pool is evenly distributed among the players who make the money, bringing the tournament to a close. Keep in mind that sign-ups will commence one hour before each event’s beginning. All participants will be registered on a first-come, first-served basis, with no additional seating options available.
Adding to the excitement, Borgata NJ offers a $5,000 Mystery Easter Egg Hunt for cash poker players. Scheduled for April 14th and 15th, the event will feature a staggering $60,000 prize pool. Two $5,000 Grand Prizes will also be available each day. Every half-hour, the High Hand Winner gets the opportunity to select a Mystery Easter Egg, revealing various cash prizes. Moreover, the additional daily prizes are set between $3,000 and $250.
In case of a tie, where multiple players hold the same qualifying high hand within the same interval, the first player dealt the qualifying high hand will choose the Mystery Easter Egg. The prize will then be equally split among eligible players.
Among other Borgata poker events you can’t miss this spring is the Bad Beat Jackpot. To qualify for a bad beat, you must hold a four-of-a-kind tens or better, using two cards from your hand. The losing hand receives 40% of the casino jackpot, while the winning hand secures 20%. The remaining 40% is distributed among other players dealt into the hand.
