The PokerStars Anniversary Series is heading into the business end this weekend, with three flagship Main Events taking center stage on May 24 and thousands of players expected to take their shot at huge guaranteed prize pools.

From the $50 million in total guarantees across the festival, $6 million is up for grabs on Sunday alone in the Main Event Low, Medium, and High, with buy-ins ranging from $109 up to $5,200.

If you are looking to win your way in at a fraction of the cost, PokerStars is running a wide range of satellites as usual, with entry points starting from just $1.10. It gives players the chance to turn a small investment into a seat in one of the biggest online tournament weekends of the year, and a shot at payouts worth thousands.

Full details below:

These events are designed to deliver a large volume of qualifiers in a short window, with players progressing through multiple entry points right up to the final hours before the Main Event begins.

In addition, $1.50 direct satellites will also be running throughout the coming days, adding another low-cost route into the $109 Main Event for those looking to take a single-shot entry.
