Borgata Poker Open 2006 Is On!

ATLANTIC CITY– The Borgata Poker Open, Atlantic City’s largest poker tournament, began September 5 in grand style with a full house of more than 1,100 eager players. Creating an electric atmosphere, professionals and amateurs alike arrived today at Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa to vie for their piece of poker history.

The buzz that was ignited this summer with the opening of Borgata’s 85-table poker room — the largest in Atlantic City — erupted today. The excitement spread as the players learned of the timeless prize for all Main Event winners — a Rolex watch from Bernie Robbins Fine Jewelry to accompany their cash prizes.

“With the incredible structure and top-notch service, I didn’t think this tournament could get any better, but the inclusion of a Rolex for the winner makes these events a must-play,” said tournament participant, Matthew Stout of Ewing, NJ.

With the cards hitting the tables today, the action continues to intensify as the buy-ins escalate and more players take their shot at hundreds of thousands of dollars and poker stardom. “Borgata is humbled by the overwhelming response from our players,” stated Stan Strickland, director of poker operations at Borgata.

“The Borgata Poker Open continues to demonstrate our commitment to our players and to the game.”

The 2006 Borgata Poker Open blog features a daily video segment with interviews from top professional players, as well as notable amateurs from this year’s tournament. The blog will allow poker fans to keep up with tournament updates and get a ‘behind-the-scenes’ view of the exciting poker lifestyle during the tournament at Borgata. “Our relationship with City Atlantic enables us to provide up-to-the-minute status of all events,” stated Ray Stefanelli, director of poker marketing at Borgata. The blog can be viewed at www.borgata.com.

Players can still register for the remaining Borgata Poker Open events. Seats can be reserved online at borgata.com. Online registration closes 48 hours before each event after which time on-site registration is still available.
