SCOOP 2023 US Highlights

A rich tournament schedule has been designed to cater to all players. According to Severing Rasset, the PokerStars US Managing Director, there was a considered effort to provide players with the best possible online poker experience.

“We’re thrilled to announce our largest series guarantee ever to players in the US,” said Rasset. “We’ve made a concerted effort to ensure that this series is accessible to all players, by curating an inclusive schedule with a wide range of buy-ins. Our aim is to provide everyone with the opportunity to compete for a coveted SCOOP trophy.”

USASCOOP 2023 comes with the familiar three-orbit system, with identical events running across three different buy-in levels: Low, Medium, and High. The number of events on each network is 126, with 41 unique tournaments featuring different buy-in levels.

There will also be Casino Races per State, with 90 trophies up for grabs on every level.

Satellites Running Around the Clock

Like every time, players on both the PokerStars PA and PokerStars US app will have ample opportunity to win their SCOOP seats for a fraction of a buy-in. There are several hundred satellites planned with the entry of just $1, alongside the Depositor’s Freeroll satellite taking place on April 2.

For the fans of Spin & Go games, PokerStars PA and PokerStars MI — NJ will be hosting special $3 Spin & Go events where the top prize will be an entry into the $300 Main Event.

All in all, with $5,000,000 guaranteed across the board and over 250 coveted SCOOP trophies up for grabs, the 2023 Championship promises to be the best one yet. Once again, things get underway on Mar 17, so make sure you’re signed up and ready to go once the action starts!
