Borgata 50K Guaranteed

NYTyler · #1 10-07-2007, 12:08 AM

Can anyone tell me about what the average attendance is for Borgata's Friday $250+$30?

Someone please chime in if my estimate is off, but I want to say 350-400 is a good estimate. A few times, it has gotten near 600 and they have to turn people away.

IS the structure any good or does it become a crap shoot?

The structure is very good. You start with 6,000 chips, and the levels last 30 minutes. The antes don't kick in until Level 4.

Ironically, the end of the tourny can be a crapshoot. Level 15, e.g., has blinds at 6,000/12,000 with 2,000 antes. It's not unusual to see most of the table shortstacked relative to the blinds. Still, I think it's the fairest structure in town.

Off hand how many get paid? What's the top few prizes (avg)?

Thanks.

I think that you will normally see 3 tables paid in the typical field (it's around the top 10%). I also think that 1st prize is usually in the range of $30,000.

Didn't want to start a new thread solely for this, but how about the Saturday $300+$40 game? Size, play, etc? I like the starting stack.
