The spring has arrived and with it one of the most anticipated online poker festivals of the year: PokerStars NASCOOP — the North American version of the fabled Spring Championship of Online Poker.
The operator announced this year’s festival a few weeks ago, with dates set for April 5 – 22, which means there will be plenty of tournament action available at PokerStars USA throughout the month.
When it comes to the US markets, the operator will be running two separate festivals, one for PokerStars PA, and the other for PokerStars MI and PokerStars NJ, whose players play in a joint player pool under the provisions of the MSIGA.
With just days left before the USCOOP kicks off across all PokerStars platforms in the US, it is high time to think about the events you want to play and the best ways to get into them.
Fortunately, PokerStars is offering plenty of qualification opportunities for the higher stakes events, with the new Path to Scoop promotion being one of the most attractive ones.
- $150 in free funds
- Great tournament schedule
- Excellent player traffic
Win Your Way to the 2024 SCOOP
As is the case every year, PokerStars SCOOP will feature hundreds of events across different buyin levels, with three buyin brackets available for each event (low, medium, and high).
The entry fee for some of the smallest events of the series will be as low as $5, but buyins will go up to $2,500, making some of the events less accessible to recreational players and those with limited bankrolls.
However, PokerStars is offering everyone a chance to compete in $100 SCOOP events this spring via its unique Path to SCOOP promotion.
Path to SCOOP is a unique version of the popular PokerStars Power Path promotion, which the operator uses to feed its big live and online events throughout the year.
This time around, players can win $100 tickets to SCOOP events by entering at any of three different buyin levels and progressing through the following steps:
- Step 1: $0.25 Sit & Go
- Step 2: $0.75 Shootout
- Step 3: $10 MTT
Players are free to enter at any step they choose and build their way up to a $100 SCOOP ticket, with each $10 MTT guaranteeing at least 3 tickets.
To make things even more attractive, PokerStars is giving away a single Step 1 ticket to every player who logs into their account and plays a single hand of real money poker every single day.
So, you can get one free shot at playing some of the most attractive SCOOP events this spring by logging into your account and claiming your free Step 1 ticket for Path to SCOOP every day.
If you are not doing so already, head on over to PokerStars, sign up for a free account, and log into it every day to get your free shot at playing some of the best SCOOP events this season.
