Play with the Big Boys (and Girls) in Atlantic City
If you’ve ever dreamed of sitting at the final table in a high-stakes poker tournament while the TV cameras watch every hand and every expression on your face, your chance is coming to Atlantic City later this month. The United States Poker Championship series opened this week at the Taj Mahal.
Of course, there’s a catch. You have to pay $2,500 or $5,000 in entry fees, and you have to beat all but half a dozen other players to make the televised final table.
The pot-limit Omaha tournament, with a $2,500 buy-in plus $125 entry fee starts November 14, with the final table being filmed November 23. The No-Limit Texas Hold’Em tournament, with a $5,000 buy-in and $250 entry fee starts November 20, with the final table played out on November 24. Don’t have that kind of money? You can try to win your seat at satellite tournaments held throughout the week where entry fees are lower. The final table shows will air on the Spike Network.

If tournament play isn’t your bag, come on down to the Taj Mahal anyway. A lot of big-name players will be in town, and the poker room is setting up some high-limit cash games to keep them occupied while not in a contest. Most are willing to sign autographs and pose for pictures if you don’t bother them while they’re actually playing.
