Late registration has just closed at the WPT Borgata Poker Open, with a total of 1,180 entrants competing for a first-place prize worth nearly $819,000 and to have their name etched onto the WPT Champions Cup and, already, there’s news that World Poker Tour is heading back to Atlantic City for a second event in Season XI.
Based on the overwhelming popularity of WPT events at Borgata, World Poker Tour will return to Atlantic City in January, 2013 for the Borgata Winter Open, running from January 27 through February 1, with live streaming of the final table available on www.WorldPokerTour.com. Like the Borgata Poker Open, this event will feature a buy-in of $3,300 + $200 along with re-entry available through Level 4 on both Day 1A and Day 1B.
More information on the second half of World Poker Tour’s Season XI schedule will be released shortly.
