Tournament players in the US competing at PokerStars Exclusively on FanDuel have a little more incentive to show up regularly for the Nightly Stars events. A new weekly leaderboard will award $2,500 per week in tournament tickets to the week's top performers in Nightly Stars events.
The leaderboard will see the top performer of the week earning $500 worth of tournament tickets. Prizes go all the way down to the 74th top performer, who will earn a $10 2nd Chance All In Shootout ticket.
Players can earn leaderboard points by cashing in any Nightly Stars tournament, with every dollar earned being worth one leaderboard point. The Nightly Stars tournament runs every Monday-Saturday at 6:40 p.m. local time.

More than 87% of the time, anyone who enters a $5 buy-in Spin & Go tournament online at PokerStars will be playing for a prize pool of either double or three times their buy-in. However, a recent $5 Spin & Go was special because the 240,000x jackpot multiplier was triggered, meaning the trio of entrants was playing for a gargantuan $1.2 million prize pool. The chances of that happening? 0.10 in a million!
PokerStars Spin & Go tournaments are a winner-takes-all when the prize pool multiplier is between 2x and 5x. The top two finishers win a slice of the pie when a 10x is hit, with anything 25x or larger paying out all three entrants.
When "KuCoH" of Belarus, Brazil's "malakaio300," and Denmark's "dillerfar19" bought into a $5 Spin & Go, the prize pool selector stopped on the ultra-rare 240,000x!
No fewer than 350 poker players will earn the right to call themselves world champions this fall when the World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) returns to PokerStars from September 6-30.
For 25 years, WCOOP has represented the pinnacle of online tournament poker. This year's festival continues that tradition with 121 events spread across High, Medium, and Low buy-in tiers, creating hundreds of opportunities for players to win a WCOOP title.
