The Main Event costs $300 and has a $125,000 guarantee.

Perhaps surprisingly for such an infant of an online poker room, MICOOP consists of 60 events, more than both Pennsylvania’s PACOOP (50) and New Jersey’s NJCOOP (54). Obviously just for players in Michigan (or not obviously, I don’t know you), MICOOP runs February 20 to March 8, guaranteeing $1 million in prize pools.

Also on Tuesday, PokerStars revealed the inaugural Michigan Championship of Online Poker (MICOOP). It’s been a busy week of tournament series announcements for PokerStars. There are just 15 tournaments of other flavors, including Pot-Limit Omaha, No-Limit Omaha Hi/Lo, 8-Game, 5-Card Pot-Limit Omaha, Fixed-Limit Omaha Hi/Lo, HORSE, Pot-Limit Omaha Hi/Lo, and the good, old Fixed-Limit Hold’em. The two $5,200 tournaments both have $750,000 guarantees.Īs one would expect, the vast majority of the events are of the No-Limit Hold’em variety. There is one other $1 million guaranteed event on the schedule: Event #64, $1,050 No-Limit Hold’em 8-Max Progressive Knockout. The complete breakdown of tournament buy-ins is as follows (courtesy the PokerStars blog):

Half the events have a buy-in of $55 or lower. Overall buy-ins range from $11 to $5,200.

The $1,050 “high” buy-in Main Event has a $2 million guarantee, while the $55 “low” buy-in Main Event has a $1 million guarantee. The Turbo Series is not one of those PokerStars tournament festivals with multiple buy-in tiers for each event, but the Main Event does have two buy-in levels. Running February 21 to March 7, the Turbo Series features 134 tournaments with more than $25 million in guaranteed prize pools. PokerStars has announced the schedule for the newest iteration of the Turbo Series, the fast-paced tournament series where no event will go past a single day.
