Unique H.O.R.S.E. Event Series and Double StrategyPoints at PokerStars
Take part in our brand new H.O.R.S.E. event series and you can get a share of the $5,000 in five freerolls we prepared for you plus another $5,000 in the Main Event. On top of that, you'll have three days in which all your StrategyPoints at PokerStars will be doubled.
We have a very special events series planned for all PokerStrategists playing at PokerStars: Five freerolls, an $11 tournament, at least $10,000 at stake - these are the basic details.
What's so special about these, you will ask? One main thing: unlike most tournaments, all of them will be based on the game of H.O.R.S.E. That's right, in the next five days you'll be able to play the five game types it's made of and we're throwing in $1,000 each time.
To top it all, we'll end the series with an actual H.O.R.S.E. tournament. You can join the action for just $10+$1 and we'll be adding $5,000 to the prize pool.
If you're new to these games and you want to give them a shot, this is a great opportunity - you have nothing to lose. Not many people play these games and the fields should be much softer than the regular tournaments. This means that your experience there could be both fun and profitable.
You will be able to find these events in the PokerStars lobby by going to the Tournaments tab and selecting Private. Each event will be visible shortly before the registration starts.
To make sure you're prepared for these events, we are also releasing a special set of strategy articles designed just for this occasion - just keep your eyes on our news page every day this week.
Here are the details for the whole event series:
