SCOOP logo.gif

This just in: PokerStars has put the finishing touches on its 2012 SCOOP schedule, and it is a doozy. Just try to count all the events, buy-in levels and guaranteed money. I dare you. Try it!

Or, if you prefer, I can make it easier for you. In all, there are 120 SCOOP tournaments spread out over 40 events. Each of those events have three buy-in levels suited for all bankrolls. In total, PokerStars is guaranteeing $30,000,000. Thirty million bucks.

In all, we’ll see two weeks of tournaments starting on May 6 and running up through the May 20th main event. If you’ve not yet taken a look at that main event, you might be interested to see these projected details:

  • Low: $109 Main Event: $1 million guaranteed
  • Medium: $1,050 Main Event: $1.5 million guaranteed
  • High: $10,300 Main Event: $2.5 million guaranteed with $500,000 guaranteed for first place
  • Note, those guarantees are preliminary, but should be set in stone within a week or so. Stay tuned on that.

    If you have a short memory, you might remember last year’s big winner, Sami Kelopuro, won more than half a millon bucks for his big main event victory.

    The 2011 SCOOP festival was an amazing one . It hosted 114 events with 403,378 buy-ins from 107,697 players in 156 countries. In total, they won $43,165,800.

    How big will this year be? We’ll find out in one month. Satellites begin in just about one week. For now, here’s the final schedule.

    Enjoy!
