A high stakes retirement, new tournament series at the Borgata and Cada dating a Playmate? That and more in today’s survey of the pokerverse, the PTP HNR for 1/13/10.
The schedule for the 2010 Winter Open at the Borgata is now released – check out the buffet of a couple dozen events headed toward arguably the nicest poker room on the east coast here.
The PCA rolls on, with the High Roller Event and the World Cup still up for grabs. Live coverage here; catch streaming coverage of the World Cup today and the HR Event tomorrow at PokerStars TV here.
Speaking of Stars: Today’s VIP Store Sale item is the chip set. Also, Joe Cada isn’t dating Jayde Nicole, says PND.

One player who won’t be attending the PCA, the BWO, the SM or any poker event for that matter: Jonas “Nebuchad” Danielsson, who announced his retirement from the game this week.
