26 Sep 2016

(PRESS RELEASE) -- PokerStars is launching the New Jersey Championship of Online Poker this October with $1.2 million in guaranteed prize money. The online series, which will be played on PokerStars New Jersey, will be the richest online series ever held in New Jersey, PokerStars, an Amaya brand announced today. NJCOOP will take place from 15-31 October featuring 43 events with entry fees ranging from $15 to $1,000.

The New Jersey Championship of Online Poker will kick off ahead of the first ever PokerStars Festival New Jersey, creating three amazing weeks of top end poker action and further demonstrating PokerStars' commitment to growing poker in the Garden State. Players of all levels are invited to pitch up and join in the fun, live and online, with plenty of action, tournaments and big prizes on offer.

The 16-day online schedule features a wide range of tournaments to suit players of all bankrolls. The highlight of the New Jersey Championship of Online Poker is the $200,000 No-Limit Hold'em Main Event, which will have a $500 buy-in and take place over two days (30-31 October). Daily online qualifiers to all the NJCOOP events are now running on PokerStarsNJ.com, with satellite tournaments through to larger tournaments starting from just $1. The schedule also includes a $1,000 NL Hold'em High Roller event on Tuesday, 10 October that has a guaranteed prize pool of $100,000.

"I'm so excited that PokerStars is bringing the Championship of Online Poker to New Jersey. It's great that players in the region can experience playing in this prestigious festival and the buzz that comes with chasing big prize money and major tournament titles," said Jason Somerville, member of Team PokerStars Pro. "I'm looking forward to playing and streaming NJCOOP on Twitch in my hunt to win a title in its debut year."
