PokerStars WCOOP 2009
The PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) is the largest tournament series on the internet. If you imagine the World Series of Poker except online, you’ll have a pretty good idea of what the WCOOP is all about. This year’s championship is handing out more than $40,000,000 in guaranteed prize money across 45 different events.
This year’s WCOOP will begin on September 3rd at 14:30 ET with a $215 6-max no limit Holdem tournament. The prize pool for the event is guaranteed at $1,250,000 but I won’t be surprised if the actual prize pool grows even larger by the time the tournament begins.
After that first event, there will be 44 other events with prize pools that range from $50,000 to $10 million. Whether you’re a no-limit Holdem player, an Omaha guy or a H.O.R.S.E. specialist, you’ll find tournaments here just for you.
2009 WCOOP Main Event
The 2009 WCOOP Main Event is guaranteed to have at least $10,000,000 in prize money, making it the biggest online poker tournament I’ve ever heard of. They don’t get any bigger than this on the internet. Hell, they don’t even normally get that big in real life!
