Poker Stars WCOOP

The Poker Stars World Championship of Online Poker are set to kick off on September 14th, 2007 and this year there is a guaranteed $18.5 million in prize money to give away!

The best part about getting into the WCOOP is that you don’t have to spend an arm and a leg to get into one of the 23 main events. You can qualify via a satellite tournament at the home of poker satellite tournaments.

Satellite Tournaments are running daily and begin at an entry fee of $2.20 + rebuys.

Poker Stars runs satellite tournaments a little differently then other online poker rooms. All of their satellite tournaments lead directly to the main events. So there are no playing through multiple tournaments just to make it to the event you are trying to qualify for.
