International Internet Day really clicks at BorgataCasino.com

October 29, 2018 by Gabrielle Giacono Leave a Comment

Happy International Internet Day! October 29 is definitely a day worth celebrating around the Borgata Online Gaming offices. After all, without the Internet, we wouldn’t be able to connect with our players, crown big winners every day and celebrate with people all across the Garden State.

To get the celebration going, we’ve got 30% cashback up to $100 on your net losses when you opt in and deposit between 4pm and 7pm (on Monday, October 29 only). And there’s a lot to celebrate today.

This year marks our 5-year anniversary of making players happy online. It was back in 2013 that the first online bet was placed in New Jersey at BorgataCasino.com and we’ve come a long way from just online slots and table games.

Today, we offer exclusive titles, Live Dealer games that bring a real Atlantic City table games dealers right to your screen, Virtual Sports, and direct access to sports betting from the BorgataCasino.com website through playMGM.

And let’s not forget the Jackpot Slots, now worth over $2.6 million.

But our favorite thing about the Internet isn’t that it lets people play at home or wherever they may find themselves in New Jersey. It’s that the Internet lets players experience Borgata and the very best of Atlantic City.

For our players, BorgataCasino.com isn’t just another online casino. It’s an extension of everything that makes Borgata truly special including our luxurious hotel suites and fine-dining restaurants.

We regularly feature promotions that award free getaways to Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City, often with dining credits and show tickets included. We’re proud of our Atlantic City property and we love meeting online players and celebrating big wins live and in person.

That’s just the start of our big promotions. On top of the Cashback Mondays promo we told you about earlier, we regularly feature leaderboard competitions, cash and Bonus Dollars sweepstakes, free spins, mystery prizes, and more. And you’ll find new promotions happening every week.

If you’re new to BorgataCasino.com, we’ve got something else to make International Internet Day even more exciting. When you sign up for a free account, you’ll get $20 Bonus Dollars to play with, plus a 100% match bonus on your first deposit, up to $600.

That’s free Bonus Dollars to play with, without leaving your house. Isn’t the Internet incredible?

PHOTOS: Borgata at Garden State Equality Walk in Atlantic City

October 25, 2018 by Bryan Buttler Leave a Comment

Garden State Equality’s largest annual fundraiser, the Equality Walk, raises thousands of dollars each year for the organization. This year, the Equality Walk expanded, and included events in Atlantic City, Asbury Park, and Montclair. Borgata was pleased to be a sponsor of the event, which brings hundreds together to support New Jersey LGBTQ advocacy and education.

This year, the Equality Walk weekend was a tremendous success, with nearly 1000 participants and just under $125,000.00, the most ever raised for any Equality Walk in Garden State Equality’s history. In fact, the organization doubled the number of attendees in 2018, and hope to continue the upward trend for future events.

Established in 2004, Garden State Equality is the largest LGBTQ advocacy organization in New Jersey; their services include a variety of policy work, trainings, and support for the community. Their work is informed by racial, economic, and disability justice concerns. They are working to address safe environments for youth, improvement of health services that meet LGBT community needs, and respectful treatment of seniors. Beyond that, Garden State Equality supports New Jersey’s activist community by bringing an LGBT lens to the shared struggle for justice.

The Black Spot at Wolfgang Puck American Grille: Wear your favorite black witches hat and head over to the bar! This libation features Diplomatico Reserva Exclusive Rum, blackberry, dates, Lemon Lustau ‘Solera Reserva’ Puerto Fino Sherry, and egg white.

The Jalapeño Margarita at Gypsy Bar: Don’t be scared of this spicy pepper! The folks at Gypsy Bar mix jalapeño infused Espolon Silver with Cointreau, fresh house sour and a dash of agave nectar.

The Transit Authority at Izakaya: Face it: is there anything scarier than waiting at the transit authority for your bus or train to leave? We promise you won’t be frightened over this cocktail, a fusion of tequila, green tea, citrus, and calpico.

The Road Comes To An End … At Least For Now!

October 23, 2018 by Asher Conniff aka misclick Leave a Comment

Growing up, I spent most of my younger years around New York City and the northeast coast. I certainly made some trips to the suburbs, but I was a city kid through and through.

After the incredible events in April 2015 my life changed in so many ways. I had always dreamed of traveling as most do. Now, I was not only able to afford traveling but I also had the time!

In 2015, once I got my affairs in order back home I really started focusing on traveling to as many places as I could. The first trip I went on was to Germany for WSOP Europe, where I made my first, and only, WSOP final table.

I also traveled to Madrid to visit old friends and watch a Real Madrid-PSG soccer game.

Then in 2016 it was off to the Bahamas for the PCA at the Atlantis.

Once I was back in the US, I was a Shooting Star at Bay 101 in Northern California, traveled to visit old friends in Seattle and made multiple stops at Universal Studios in Orlando. I even made it to Washington, DC for a stop at the White House!

2017 included trips to Montreal, Cincinnati, Tijuana and Niagara Falls. I made a cross country trip from Florida to Las Vegas by car with my girlfriend for the World Series of Poker. I went to music festivals in Florida, California, New York and Las Vegas, which were truly some of the best times of my life.

At this point, the road was my home. While I had moved into an apartment in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, I was rarely in it and had become accustomed to used to living out of a suitcase.

By 2018 I could feel the wear and tear of the road getting to me. The lack of normalcy was starting to wear me down. My life was changing a lot during that time and decided that I needed to slow down. But – I needed to go out with a bang!

I packed up and went to Hong Kong and then Australia. I was in Australia for four weeks and was able to participate in the Aussie Millions! It was truly amazing seeing different places and cultures.

By the time my stay was through, I knew I was ready to make a big change. When I returned, I moved in with my girlfriend in New York and started making plans to get a place that I would finally call home.

Which leads me to my current chapter. Two weeks ago I moved into a condo in Jersey City, New Jersey and I couldn’t be more excited! I am only a 10 minute train ride to New York City and have the most perfect view of the Empire State Building right outside of my living room window.

And guess what? I am still able to play online poker from my house! Did I tell you that I have really missed playing online? While I have been able to play online when in New Jersey, or outside of the country, I missed the grind, the community and the fun.

I really do enjoy playing the game of poker and I’m hyped to get back in the streets. I can already tell it’s going to take a while to adapt to the docile, regular nature of just living a somewhat normal and off-the-road life. But I’m here to tell you that I’m excited to experience every step of the journey!

There’s a ton of exciting things happening at BorgataPoker.com as well, my favorite place to play online poker (come see me – misclick – at the tables). I’m forever impressed by their willingness to try new things, extend promotions to their players and strive to be the best online poker community.

As they say, all good things must come to an end and for me, endless traveling is one of those things.

I’m beyond blessed to have had the opportunity to do so, and I never will take it for granted.

See you all soon, on or off the tables.
