The series starts with a big $109-buy-in no limit hold’em event with a $500,000 guarantee, and the series culminates in two Main Events-the “Twin Turbos”-a $1,050 buy-in tournament with $2.5 million guaranteed, and a $55 with $1 million guaranteed.Īlong with the regular Hold’em and PLO events, the schedule will include a variety of niche events, including pot limit Hold’em, HORSE, Badugi and others. “The Turbo Series is a great opportunity for players of all levels to play in a fun and fast-paced series that is guaranteed to be one of the most enjoyable events of the year,” said Severin Rasset, PokerStars Director of Poker Innovation and Operations. Winners of the two main events will win a Platinum Pass, and every player who enters at least one event will gain entry into the PokerStars Players Championship All-In Shootout, where a third pass will be given to one lucky winner. There will also be three Platinum Passes up for grabs. Along with the surprising name change, the series is a notable departure from its usual late January slot.Ī total of $15 million in guaranteed prizes is up for grabs over 74 events, a slight increase on last year’s 66, with a mix of mostly mid-stakes turbo and hyper-turbo structures. The Turbo Series, formally TCOOP, is back on the calendar this month starting on February 18 and running for 16 days.
