Back in April, PokerStars PA held the PASCOOP, which was the spring version of this series. At the time, the site had been playing around with its guarantee for its biggest event of the week, the Sunday Special going from $40,000 to $100,000 back down to $50,000 one week.
Then, on April 5, it was settled on a $100 buy-in, $70K GTD when PokerStars PA Ambassador Jen "JenShahadePA" Shahade claimed the title and made headlines in the poker world.
