What kind of big annual poker tournaments are there along the east coast. Between california and Nevada, there seems to ALWAYS be something going on, but we have pretty slim picking over here.

Outside of the FOxwoods New England tourney, and i think 1 a year at the Taj, what else do we have to choose from???

Its a little frustrating as i would like to break the monotony of online poker with an occasional live tourney.

Doesn't Foxwoods also have their WPT event in the fall?

Have you been away?

Showdown at the Sands,
Borgata Poker Open,
Foxwoods NEPC,
Foxwoods WPT event,
Taj World Poker Championship

I may have even missed one. All of these have at least a 2K buyin final event and most have a 10K. There is also the Empire State event at Turning Stone but I'm pretty sure that's smaller. Given the quantity of card rooms on the east coast, its quite a bit.
