It’s December, and the holidays are upon us. In fact, the holidays are everywhere – from the specials in grocery stores to the well-lit houses in some neighborhoods, from the songs on the radio to the ads on television.
PokerStars wants to spread a little holiday cheer to its players in the US market. While the team at PokerStars USA will not make cookies with sprinkles for you or help you do last-minute gift shopping, they can offer the chance at stellar poker tournaments throughout the month of December.
Poker players in three states – New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania – will have a shot at big money in the 25 Days of Tournaments series.
25 Days of December
Just after PokerStars USA wrapped up its Fall Fest series for players in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, the team is at it again. The 25 Days of Tournaments is set to begin on December 5 and run through December 29.
It’s like an Advent calendar without the chocolates but with money.
There will be one tournament each day, each one with two buy-in levels – one at $50 and a mini version at the $10 price point. And, of course, satellites begin for as little as $1.
The first two events – both for December 5 – are live in the tournament lobby and have different guarantees in all three states. For players located in New Jersey:
-$10 buy-in NLHE Progressive Total KO 3-Max Zoom ($1.5K GTD)-$50 buy-in NLHE Progressive Total KO 3-Max Zoom ($4K GTD)
For players located in Pennsylvania:
-$10 buy-in NLHE Progressive Total KO 3-Max Zoom ($3.5K GTD)-$50 buy-in NLHE Progressive Total KO 3-Max Zoom ($10K GTD)
And then for Michigan poker players:
-$10 buy-in NLHE Progressive Total KO 3-Max Zoom ($2K GTD)-$50 buy-in NLHE Progressive Total KO 3-Max Zoom ($6K GTD)
There is an Advent calendar for players in the 25 Days of Tournaments. All players in all states will be able to open a challenge each day. For completing the challenge, they will receive a key. Players can then collect those keys to unlock chests containing prizes of up to $1K.
This is an extra way to win alongside the full tournament schedule and the two buy-in levels for each event.
