BetOnline COPS Championship Online Poker Series

There’s no question that the live poker arena is still adjusting to pandemic protocols, especially due to the ever-changing nature of the virus and health guidelines. While casinos and cardrooms are sorting it all out – masks, proof of vaccination, negative Covid-19 tests – online poker is still here.

BetOnline is ready for one of its players’ favorite series, the Championship Online Poker Series, also known as COPS. And this series is much better than the former reality television show of the same name.

Considering BetOnline and Sportsbetting.ag share the same online poker platform, players on both sites can participate in COPS side by side. The upcoming series will kick off on September 6 and offer 20 days of poker tournament action with a wide range of buy-ins and more than $2.5M in prize pool guarantees.

COPS Details

The second running of the Championship Online Poker Series will run September 6-26. Over those 21 days, there will be 87 events. Most of them will offer either two or three buy-in levels, though. The total number of available tournaments is 267.

The buy-ins range from $5.50 to $320. And all of the guarantees put together surpass $2.5M in prize money to be awarded.
