Its back and its going to be bigger than ever; yes, it’s the Spring Championship of Online Poker. Following on from the success of last year’s SCOOP, Pokerstars have put a guaranteed $36 million on the line and crammed no less than 99 events into the 13 day online festival. Each of the 33 events will have three buy-in levels: low, medium and high with guaranteed prizepools for each. The staggered entry fees is one of the major reasons for the festivals success because it gives low stakes players, as well as the sharks of the internet world, a chance to compete for some amazing prizes and the chance to win a SCOOP bracelet. Last year the series attracted thousands of players and this year is bound to be no different and with a main event offering $5 million in prize money you can expect some big money if you manage to make it deep.
