BetMGM Poker New Jersey (NJ) is planning to hold two unique events on November 21,2023 as it celebrates a decade of online poker’s operation in New Jersey. Yet, the renowned poker operator will host a freeroll event that any BetMGM player can participate in.
It will have more than $40,000 in guaranteed prizes. Also, the freeroll event will have a huge $10,000 promise. BetMGM Poker NJ’s Special Edition 10th Anniversary Tournament comprises $30,000 guarantees and a $535 buy-in.
The operator offers all local online players an opportunity to join its festivities and increase their bankrolls. It will kick off the two tournaments at 8 p.m. local time and any of its account holders can try their luck. Therefore, new players should sign up fast to receive the $1,075 new player bonus.
NJ Online Poker’s Anniversary
New Jersey, Delaware and Nevada were the first states in the country to legalize online poker. NJ didn’t hesitate to pass regulations that allow poker companies to apply for gaming licenses and create secure platforms as it saw a huge potential in the poker industry.
NJ joined the Multi-State Internet Gaming Agreement (MSIGA) in 2016 hence allowing poker operators to merge their player pools with those in Delaware and Nevada. Michigan signed the agreement in 2022 hence promoting the growth of New Jersey’s online poker sector.
BetMGM ventured into NJ’s poker industry in 2017 after other operators began dominating the local market. Borgata Poker which MGM Resorts owns and runs was among NJ’s first online poker providers. However, BetMGM shares its player pool.
This makes it ideal for the two online poker operators to celebrate the state’s online poker legalization for a decade. Nevertheless, the country’s poker industry faces various challenges today.
How Can Players Join the Special Tournaments?
The tournaments are suitable for individuals who seek high-value opportunities. The $10,000 freeroll is open to all players since it lacks requirements. A player needs to log into their BetMGM Poker NJ account and sign up for the tournament before it kicks off on November 21.
Individuals who don’t have a BetMGM account can register. They will receive a lucrative welcome bonus constituting $25 no-deposit funds and a 100 percent match-up for up to $1,000.
BetMGM’s $535 Anniversary tournament isn’t accessible to some players. But the poker operator might host a few satellites to offer interested players an opportunity to win seats at a discount.
High-risk takers can make the buy-in to win various prizes on Tuesday night. Poker analysts predict that the event will attract skilled players.
New Jersey’s online poker has grown fast and has a promising future. However, the state slowed down its regulation compared to other states since it allowed the game. Yet, poker fans hope that the sector will have expanded before the next anniversary.
