Borgata is bringing back another fan favorite tournament series after a five year hiatus with the Fall Poker Open from November 4 through 18 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. 

Last year at Borgata, the Fall Mini Series offered six events spread over a week. This year, the supersized series will offer 16 regular events along with breakout schedules that include seven mixed games tournaments, 16 qualifiers and eight events in cooperation with Bar Poker Open. It all leads up to the $1,000,000 Main Event with a $2,700 buy-in and two starting flights on November 14 and 15.
