Us Poker Open Schedule
Another live poker brand goes online and this time it is one of New Jersey’s most premier live poker tournament series, the Borgata Spring Poker Open.
Originally scheduled to take place live at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City from April 7 but forced to cancel following the closure of casinos across the US, the Spring Poker Open will now be held entirely online serving New Jersey players on the partypoker US network, comprising partypoker NJ, Borgata and BetMGM online poker rooms—sharing the same player pool.
The online series will take place over an eight-day period from April 5 to 12, guaranteeing over $400,000 in prize money ($406,000 to be exact). A total of 17 events make up the schedule including two $100,000 guaranteed events.
This will be the operator’s first online tournament series in nearly two years. The last time the partypoker US network ran a series was back in October 2018 when it hosted the Garden State Super Series with total guarantees of $450,000.
