The Bounty Builder Series is about to enter its second weekend, and has already paid out over $11.3 million in prizes.

Players are set for another epic and lucrative schedule of tourneys. The $109 PKO Sunday Million takes center stage, accompanied by a number of other high guarantee events.

Low stakes players will also find plenty to enjoy, with four tourneys running for $11 and a further four at $22.

And for those looking for something different to the usual Hold’em format, there’s also a PLO and an 8-game event. Let’s dig deeper:

Weekend’s biggest tourneys

The highlight event of the weekend is the BBS 84: $109 Sunday Million, a special edition PKO event that sticks true to its usual $1 million guarantee.

Also notable for their huge prize pools:

84: $530 Bounty Builder HR, $500k gtd
86: $1,050 Sunday HR, $500k gtd

For potentially lower cost entry, players can find satellites under the “Bounty Builder Series” tab on the PokerStars lobby.

Saturday’s Daily Highlight event

The three events mentioned so far all take place on Sunday. If you’re looking to play for a significant win on Saturday, check out the Big Knockout events happening at three buy-in levels:

70: $11 Big Knockouts, $100k gtd
71: $55 Big Knockouts, $225k gtd
72: $215 Big Knockouts, $250k gtd

Big Knockout events are still PKO. The difference is that a larger portion of the player’s buy-in goes to the bounty prize pool. There’ll still be chunks of cash to play for on the final table, and the knockouts will be giant!

Low stakes highlights

Low stakes players are in for a treat this weekend, with eight events running for $22 or less. Here are the top picks:

74: $22 NLHE Slug Blinds (66BB stacks), $100k gtd
82: $11 NLHE, $80k gtd
84: $22 Sunday Mini Million, $250k gtd

Non Hold’em tourneys

It’s a rare treat to find non Hold’em poker games combined with PKO action. The Bounty Builder Series provides, with two tourneys on the schedule this weekend that tick all the boxes:

73: $109 8-Game (6-max), $25k gtd
85: $55 PLO (6-max), $40k gtd
