Pokerstars is gearing up for World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP). Players will be playing for over $1,000,000 in prizes throughout the month. Pokerstars has changed the format of the event this year by adding more seats into the tournaments at a lesser fee. With this many seats, Stars was forced to add extreme satellites to fill these tournaments. The lowest satellite entry fee is only $7.50 so any type of bankroll can participate. This is your chance to burst your way onto the poker scene and earn some big money.
Satellites are starting on the 4th of August and running 2-3 times a day. The satellites is a Steps program which means you have to work your way to the top. Here is the schedule for the satellites.
