The Main Events will get underway on Sunday, May 29 and run for the final four days of the series.
The three Hold’em Main Event buy-ins are $109, $1,050 and $10,300, and the guarantees are $2.5 million, $4 million and $5 million, respectively.
There will also be a PLO Main Event, starting on the same day, as well as a Women’s Event for the first time, also on the same Sunday.
On top of the Hold’em Main Events, there will be a further eight tournaments on this year’s SCOOP schedule with guarantees of $1 million, including three Sunday Million Special Editions on each Sunday in May.
Again, these come in three levels of buy-in and there will also be numerous satellite tournaments so everybody can get involved.
The majority of events will be no limit Texas Hold’em, but there will also be events in PLO, PLO8, Razz, Stud, Stud 8, 2-7 Triple Draw, 5-Card NLO8, 5-Card PLO, 5-Card PLO8, 6+ (short deck), 8-Game, Badugi, HORSE, 5-Card Draw, Single Draw and a NLH/PLO mix, plus some fixed limit games, including Hold’em and Omaha hi/lo too.
This year’s schedule is actually a reduced one given that there were 372 events and $100 million in guarantees put up last year.
In PokerStars' most popular spring offering, there have been more than 11 million tournament entries and prize pools of more than $1.1 billion over the last 13 seasons.
In that time, tournament winners have earned more than $170 million.
As well as an action-packed schedule of play on the virtual felt, PokerStars will also be putting up an extra $1 million in added value in SCOOP-related promotions.
New for SCOOP 2022, PokerStars players will be given the chance to win SCOOP tickets by picking from one of six boxes a day. In all, there will be $250,000 worth of tickets dished out weekly throughout the Series.
Up to $100,000 in cash prizes will be awarded across four SCOOP leader boards. Players will be awarded points every time they take part in a SCOOP event. Points are awarded according to their finishing position. The leaderboards are based on the Low, Medium, and High buy-in events as well as another for overall Player of the Series. Leader board winners will take home a SCOOP trophy to mark their success.
SCOOP Fast Track satellites worth $300,000 will be running throughout the series allowing players to qualify for the Main Events for as little as $0.50. The Fast Track has four steps with four different tournaments to compete in and players can buy-in at any step. Naturally, Main Event tickets will always be awarded at Step 4.
Finally, PokerStars will be running Special Edition $0.50, $4, and $20 Spin & Go tournaments where SCOOP tickets will be up for grabs.
