SCOOP-43-H: $25,000 NLHE [8-Max, Super High Roller], $1.5M Gtd
Day 1 Started
High-stakes action continues today on PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker with SCOOP-43-H: $25,000 NLHE [8-Max, Super High Roller], $1.5M Gtd.
The nosebleed stakes commence about 40 minutes from now with players getting 250,000 in their starting stacks and playing 20-minute levels, which promises to offer plenty of play. Those sitting down for Level 1 will start at 1,200/2,400/300.
The plan for Day 1 is to play until the field is in the money. That won't be for some time as late registration remains open for a hefty five hours-plus. Those going bust may also exercise the option to reenter during that time frame, up to twice.
PokerStars will certainly be looking for players to take them up on that as there's a $1.5 million guarantee attached, meaning 62 entries are needed post-rake to make the number, and only six players are registered currently. Still, the high-stakes grinders are expected to trickle in as the day goes on, making for an exciting and highly competitive contest on PokerStars.
Stay tuned here on PokerNews to follow the Day 1 action.
