Party Poker is running freeroll tournaments, single-table Sit & Go tournaments, and scheduled multi-table tournaments as satellites for their players to qualify for the premiere event on this season's World Poker Tour schedule, the WPT Borgata Poker Open, held in Atlantic City, NJ, at the Borgata Hotel and Casino.
The $7,500 Party Poker prize packages for the WPT Borgata Poker Open 2010 include the $3,500 main event buy-in as well as the costs for the accomodation in the hotel throughout the event and a little spending cash to play around with.
The qualifying structure for the 2010 WPT Borgata Open Party Poker satellites is as follows.
It starts with daily freeroll tournaments, the WPT Borgata Freerolls, awarding the top 50 finishers a seat in the WPT Borgata Sub Qualifier Speed Rebuy. These events, also running daily, have direct buy-ins of $1. One seat in the WPT Borgata Satellite Qualifier will be awarded for every $70 collected in buy-ins.
There's also a WPT Borgata Sub Qualifier Speed tournament, also running daily. There is no freeroll qualifier for these events, only a direct buy-in of $3.50 + $0.50. At these events, one out of every ten players will get a seat in the Party Poker WPT Borgata Satellite Qualifier.
The WPT Borgata Satellite Qualifier has a $32 + $3 buy-in. It takes place on Party Poker daily at 1:45 pm ET. On Sundays, it is a Turbo event. At these events, one out of every ten players will win a seat in the WPT Borgata Satellite.
The WPT Borgata Satellite takes place every Sunday at 3:20 pm ET on Party Poker and has a direct buy-in of $300 + $20. One 2010 Borgata Poker Open Party Poker prize package is guaranteed to be awarded at each of these events for every 25 players registered.
The 2010 WPT Borgata Poker Open main event is scheduled to take place from September 19 - 24. The prize package includes accommodations for September 17 - 23, though more nights will be added for players who continue to the final table.
