Borgata Late Night Tournies
 

Anyone else interested in these? starting Sun and Sun-Thurs at 11:30 PM they will be running $60+5 (much better value than the usual $50+10) MTTs...

Re: Borgata Late Night Tournies
 

It looks like they are $60+15 (not +5).

Here is a link to their structure.

Should be a good tourny, assuming you don't have a problem playing until 5am.

rob...just noticed this but the flyer i got has $60+5 in two places...intentional typo???

Re: Borgata Late Night Tournies
 

Hmmmmmm...

$60+5 would be pretty sweet. I won't be getting down there for a while, so post in here when you find out for real.

Re: Borgata Late Night Tournies

$60 + $5? I'm going to be in the Borgata every night at 11:59PM to sign up. That's got to be a misprint, that's only an 8.33% vig.

That's a better chop than pokerstars, plus the players suck and are loaded from the booze...

it says 60+15 on the website, which Id probably tend to go off of as opposed to flyers.

Ill probably play one tonight:)

Re: Borgata Late Night Tournies
 

that rake is probably unbeatable in the long run.

Re: Borgata Late Night Tournies
 

it's definitely 60+15, borgata doesn't cut anybody any slack on anything.

Re: Borgata Late Night Tournies
 

$15 juice on $60 buy-in! Yuck!

Absolutely brutal.

Although judging from the way people flock to the sit-n-ripoffs they run, no one cares.

Re: Borgata Late Night Tournies
 

I'm sure you gys know this but i believe the borgata did this to compete with the Taj midnight tournaments, which are event raked worse at:
$38+$12 which is a 31% rake.

The borgata structure is way better and lower rake.

Taj structure is:
THE MIDNIGHT EVENT WHICH WILL RECEIVE $12,000 IN TOURNAMENT CHIPS.

What you don't find out until you get there is that it is 12 minute levels. So 2000 less chips but better rake and longer levels the borgata i believe is trying to corner the late night tournament market. But the taj runs these for higher buyins on the weekends and borgata will not. Probably due to the lareg amount of cash games. maybe they can be convinced to run them for higher stakes on the weekend as for most NL tournaments the borgata has pretty good structures for daily tournaments compared to the other joints.
Have played in the taj midnight twice and its a big turbo crapshoot.

I'll be playing Wed. 9/26. If anyone wants to track me down to say hello, I'll be wearing a Mets Billy Wagner T-shirt.

Re: Borgata Late Night Tournies
 

Played this the 25th through 27th, not a bad tournament, very few non tards playing, unf I only got deep in 1 and still didnt cash, also they switched to 15 minute levels as of wed night, said it was taking too long.

Apparently I got knocked out in one of them by the bad guy from Road trip:/

Re: Borgata Late Night Tournies
 

How long does it look like these are taking to finish?

Is there the usual AC final table chop when it is down to 3 or 4 players?
