The 2013 edition of the ever-popular PokerStars Spring Championship Of Online Poker (SCOOP) is going to be the biggest and richest SCOOP festival to date thanks in part to PokerStars guaranteeing that at least $40,000,000 will be won! Three-million dollar of that guaranteed cash is reserved for the SCOOP Low Main Event and SCOOP Medium Main Event, two tournaments you could be playing in for free!

The SCOOP Low Main Event is only low in its name and not in its size or stature. Costing $109 to enter, the SCOOP Low Main Event features a massive $1,000,000 guaranteed prize pool. It’s larger “Medium” brother costs an eye-watering $1,050 to buy into and boasts a gigantic $2,000,000 prize pool. What you would say if we told you that PokerNews has 75 x SCOOP Low Main Event tickets and 7 x SCOOP Medium Main Event tickets to give away as prizes? You would think we had gone crazy wouldn’t you? We have not, not quite anyway, because PokerNews does have 82 SCOOP Main Event ticket to award as prizes and here is how you can get your hands on them.

PokerStars is to host two PokerNews-exclusive satellites that will award over $15,000 worth of SCOOP Main Event tickets. Despite the value of this promotion being huge, the qualification criteria are very simple and extremely low for both new and existing PokerNews customers.
