The series runs May 2-16, with events across a range of poker games and buy-ins as all 38 will feature three buy-in levels.
“What I find most exciting about SCOOP is that players at all stake levels get an opportunity to play in a championship-level event,” said PokerStars tournaments Team Leader Bryan Slick.
SCOOP will guarantee $45 million in prize money, edging out last year’s total prize pool of $39,372,270 with the main event guaranteeing prize pools of at $1 Million, $3 Million and $5 Million in the low, medium and high buy-in levels respectively.
The first event of the series is a No-Limit Hold’em Six-Max event, with buy-ins of $22, $215 and $2,100.
The series will offer several other events with buy-ins ranging from $109 to $10,300, plus a two-day Heads-Up Match Play tournament with a buy-in of $25,500.
The SCOOP schedule includes most of the games PokerStars offers, including Badugi, Omaha, Draw, Stud and Hold’em.
Highlights include Shootouts, 2X Chance Turbos, 8-game and HORSE.
