PokerStars Announces All-Stakes Spring Championship of Online Poker 0001

PokerStars has officially released the schedule for April's All-Stakes Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) series. The SCOOP, in the works for several months, will span 11 days, April 2-12, 2009, and include 22 different events. Each event itself will consist of three separate low, medium and high buy-in tournaments, making a total of 66 tourneys from which players can choose.

Overall, $30 million in prize money will be guaranteed over the course of the SCOOP, with actual total payouts expected to be significantly higher. The series includes two different high-roller events, and culminates on April 12 with a $5 million guarantee for the SCOOP main event. Among the distinct elements in the SCOOP:

? $10,300 High-Roller H.O.R.S.E.

? $25,500 Heads-up NL Hold'em

? Eight-Game Mixed event

? Six-Max No-Limit Hold'em

? Mixed Hold'em

? Six-Max PLO (with one re-buy and one add-on)

Buy-ins start from as little as $5.50 for low-tier events, and satellites begin even cheaper, available for $2.20 or through FPP (Stars Frequent Player Points) entries. More information is available at the official PokerStars SCOOP web page, at https://www.pokerstars.com/scoop.
