When you get sick of laying on the beach, riding bikes, fishing and other outdoorsy types of activities, make your way down to the Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa in Atlantic City.
Shockingly, it's not owned by Donald Trump. The hotel's casino is unveiling the largest poker room in AC on June 30. The joint will have 85 tables packed into a 21,500-square-foot room. Also included are:
An eighteen-table High Limit Room offering food service; a nine-table tournament area offering bleacher seating for tournament viewing that can be partitioned off as a "reserved" poker area, and a 58-table Main Poker Room offering live poker action outfitted with plasma televisions. As an added convenience, a safe deposit box room is provided by Borgata for poker customers.
You know to keep your frozen heads safe while you play a round or two.
All the usual games like Texas Hold'em, Seven-Card Stud and Omaha will be played. And to celebrate the poker room, the Borgata is hosting a series of events throughout the summer including the Holiday Weekend Poker tournament from June 30 to July 4 that has a $50 prize pool guaranteed.
