Key Takeaways
  • Along with 166 reentries, the tournament amassed a prize pool in excess of £800,000, double the tournament’s guarantee.
  • The turnout bucks a trend of declining numbers in PokerStars’ annual London event.
  • The first two tournaments following the rebranding announced last September were a success by many measures, but attendance wasn’t one of them.

After an arguably rocky start to its first events under the global reorganization of its live tours, PokerStars has found solid ground in London where a surprisingly high turnout led to one of the biggest tournaments PokerStars has ever hosted in the Hippodrome casino.
