Event 1: Tournament SOLD OUT

$500 + $60 Deep Stack NLH (Re-Entry)

Players have expressed how impressed and overwhelmed they are at the turnout for the $1 MILLION GUARANTEED event to kick off the Borgata Poker Open.

"This tournament is sold out," says Tournament Director Tab Duchateau as players enter the Event Center for Day 1B.  Players wanting to get in were provided a limited number of alternate tickets, which were issued after the last seats were sold at 10:15 am.
 
"I've never seen anything like it," says Phil Neiman (New York, NY). "This is crazy."

Neiman says he busted from Day 1A after midnight and got in line at 6:30 am to grab one of the 500 seats sold this morning.  Registration closed after ~1,600 Day 1B seats were sold, as officials need to accommodate players who bustout and wish to re-enter.

Despite 170 poker tables on property, the finite number of tables preclude additional seats from being sold.
