PokerStars has rolled out a major update to its Power Path qualification system, introducing a brand-new $530 Bronze Power Pass as part of a restructure designed to smooth out progression between buy-in levels.
The changes, which came into effect on April 27, leave the upper echelons of Power Path unchanged with the $10,300 Gold Pass and $2,500 Silver Pass both remaining in place, while the main adjustments come further down the ladder, where PokerStars has reshaped its Bronze tier and added a new entry point for lower-stakes players.
The €3,250 EPT Mystery Bounty attracted 584 entries creating a prize pool of €1,115,440. The top 87 players will be guaranteed a min-cash of €3,330, and the eventual winner will collect the top prize of €210,040 along with the PokerStars EPT Monte-Carlo trophy.
