Atlantic City-based operator Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa and BetMGM have announced a collaboration that will see them host four high-stakes poker tournaments in January 2023.

The poker championship will feature four tournaments which will all hold within a week at the poker room and central conference centre.

It will come with a $5,300 buy-in, and players will compete to take a larger share of a guaranteed prize pool of $3m, with the last player at the table taking home a guaranteed $1m.

BetMGM recognizes the strong legacy of tournaments at Borgata and is thrilled to collaborate with the team to bring online qualifiers to ‘The Return.’ In the upcoming months, we look forward to offering online poker players various ways to qualify for this momentous event which will kick off 2023 with a bang!
