PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker
The PokerStars WCOOP, or World Championship of Online Poker, will be kicking off a week from tomorrow, with some of the biggest events online I’ve ever seen, including a guaranteed $10 million prize pool for the main event.
I haven’t played a lot of big online tourneys with buyins of this size, but if there were ever one that looks tempting this is probably it. Some great buyin prices and huge pools. This is worth checking out.
