Labor Day weekend brought a couple of new changes to the tournament schedule in the Garden State on partypoker NJ and BorgataPoker.com.
One permanent change is that buy-ins are no longer rounded figures. As an example, the partypoker NJ/BorgataPoker.com $50,000 Guarantee, which used to set players back a $185+15 entry fee, now costs $200+15. While tournaments are now more expensive for players to buy into, the net effect of this is positive as they are paying less effective rake with the same $15 being charged on $200 that was previously charged on $185.
