PokerStars PACOOP to Offer the Biggest Online Poker Tournament in Pennsylvania History This Sunday PokerStars PACOOP to Offer the Biggest Online Poker Tournament in Pennsylvania History This Sunday

The first-ever online tournament series in Pennsylvania, PACOOP, is about to come to a close.

Having kicked off late last month, the series got off to a promising start, covering 25% of its initial $1 million guarantee with just two days under its belt.

Following a successful first weekend, PokerStars PA increased guarantees on dozens of PACOOP events to bring the series total to $1.225 million.

Out of 50 events that are part of the series, 38 have concluded and these have generated over $1.1 million in prize pools.

But there is a lot to look forward to this final weekend. We expect another $375,000 to be paid out in the final three days This would bring the series total prize pool close to $1.5 million, which would be quite impressive given that its the first-ever series in the Keystone State.
