PokerStars to give away $1 million in cash and WCOOP tickets during "VIP Club Month"
1 Aug 2013
PokerStars players who win freerolls or earn enough points for SilverStar VIP status during August will receive tickets for the $1 million VIP Giveaway, which takes place from September 2-6. The giveaway will take the form of five "no-skill" tournaments where players will be "all-in" every hand until there is a winner. This is the first time that PokerStars has run this sort of promotional tournament, and will make for a fun sweat as players log on and watch to see how far they go and what they win.
Over $1 million in tens of thousands of prizes will be split across the five tourneys, with more than $200,000 up for grabs in each prize draw tournament. In total more than $400,000 in WCOOP tickets will be given away and $600,000 in cash prizes.
