SPRING CHAMPS WILL BE ONE OF POKERSTARS' BIGGEST

27 February 2009

66 tourneys in 22 events planned

 

Online poker website PokerStars.com is about to roll out one of its largest and most ambitions promotions yet - the $30 million Spring Championship of Online Poker, which has been designed to accommodate players at all levels and pockets and will take place April 2-12. In some cases, the guaranteed prize-pools are set to create new benchmarks in online poker - up to $5 000 000!

To cater for all pockets, the 22 events on the schedule are each split into three, making a total of 66 tourneys. For example, the first event is a 6-max No-Limit Hold ‘em with re-buys event, with three separate buy-ins of $5.50, $55 and $550. The events will also be supported by satellite activity with low buy-ins.

Dominating the schedule, and sure to achieve wide media coverage, are two High-Roller events, with the series ending on a Main Event on Sunday, April 12.

PokerStars will offer a substantial guaranteed prize pool on each buy-in level of each tournament, and the range of events covers most popular genres of poker. Main Event buy-ins will see different levels between $109 to $10 300, featuring buy-ins ranging from $109 to $10,300, with the high stakes version offering a guaranteed prize pool of $5 million while the medium- and low-stakes events will be worth a guaranteed $3 million and $1 million respectively.

Full details of the schedule can be found on the PokerStars website.
