The Borgata Fall Poker Open (BFPO)<\/strong><\/a> will kick off on Election Day, Nov. 6, and run until Nov. 21. <\/strong>During those two\u00a0weeks, players will compete for over $3 million in guaranteed prize pools<\/strong>. The tournament series will feature 20 events and 17 secondary tournaments, and online qualifiers are now underway.<\/p>\n

The main course has plenty of meat<\/span><\/h2>\n

The BFPO Main Event<\/strong> itself is a whopper of a tournament.<\/p>\n

Day 1A will begin on Nov. 17. The second flight will run the next day.<\/p>\n

The event is a five-day clash. Borgata will crown a champion on Nov. 21, the last day of the series.\u00a0The Championship winner will take home the lion\u2019s share of a $1 million guaranteed prize pool<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

With two starting flights, it\u2019s possible that the total prizepool could jump over that number. New Jersey casinos have seen increased volume and traffic since sports betting debuted in June 2018, and that might send the attendance through the roof.<\/p>\n

Long story short, there will be quite a few people who pay the $2700 entry fee. $2500 of that fee will go straight towards the pot.<\/p>\n

There will also be unlimited re-entry in the early stages of both Day 1 flights. Players can play both Day 1s if they choose. They can take the higher of their two stacks forward if they are still alive at the end of both flights.<\/p>\n

If you can afford to play, the tournament structure looks to be outstanding. Players will begin with 30,000 in tournament chips, and blind levels are at least 60 minutes long.<\/p>\n

In fact, levels after 11 will jump to 75 minutes until the final table. Blinds begin at 100 \u2013 100, and the big blind won\u2019t exceed 1,000 until level 8.<\/p>\n

The final table will live-stream on PokerGO<\/strong>. The broadcast will run with a 30-minute delay.<\/p>\n

How to enter the Championship<\/span><\/h2>\n

Most poker players should find their mouths watering about this tournament. However, $2700 may be a bit steep for some.<\/p>\n

Thankfully, Borgata is hosting a multitude of satellites and qualifiers to gain a ticket. In fact, online qualifiers<\/strong> are already underway on Borgata\u2019s online poker site in New Jersey<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Players can begin their journey towards the BFPO Championship for as little as $5. There are daily $5 qualifiers that feed into $45 satellites<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Those $45 satellites also run daily and feed into $400 Super Satellites<\/strong>. From these Super Satellites, one in eight players will receive a seat at the big table.<\/p>\n

The Super Satellites will run on Nov. 10, 11, 17, and 18. All Super Satellites begin at 7:40 p.m. EST.<\/p>\n
