Borgata is back in April with a Spring Poker open that will feature over $4 million in guarantees and a $1 million Main Event at the famed casino in Atlantic City. 

New Jersey will once again welcome players to the coastal city, where more than 30 events are up for grabs from April 23 through May 8. 

Last time out at the winter version of Borgata's regular festival, Blake Vogdes took down the Main Event after he came from behind at the final table to win over $407K for the $3,500 buy-in. The Spring Poker Open version will offer a $1 million guarantee and three opening flights for $2,700.

Other highlights on the schedule include the Deepstack Kickoff, where six opening flights feed into a $1 million guarantee during the opening weekend of the tournament. Starting Thursday, April 23, players have two daily opportunities to get into Sunday's Day 2 for a shot at the livestreamed final table on Monday, April 27. 

The rest of the first week also includes the BetMGM Poker Hybrid Championship, where players will compete online for their seat in the in-person final table on the Borgata's livestream stage. After that, six-figure guarantees like the $150K $580 Six Max and the $750K $500 Borgata Almighty Stack lead the way to the Spring Poker Open Championship starting on May 3. After the Main Event, the Monster Mirror Mystery Bounty offers one more chance at a six-figure prize pool with its $250K guarantee on May 6.
