PokerStars is celebrating their 10th anniversary in December 2011 after more than 69 billion hands dealt and they do it with style! Get ready already, for a massive celebaration with more than $10,000,000 in prizes!

Even though it's just the beginning of November and still a month to pass until the anniversary, PokerStars announced two upcoming promotions today and made it clear that these two events are just the tip of the iceberg of what's to come for all PokerStars players; new and old, poor and rich.
PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu is excited: "Amazing that it’s been 10 years! I'm very proud of my association with PokerStars, and this December's 10th Anniversary Celebration is going to be a doozy!"

PokerStars revealed that no less than 100 packages will be up for grabs for the annual PokerStars Caribbean Adventure - each bag worth more than $15,000. The final event takes place January 5-14, 2012 in Paradise Island, Bahamas. The below explains how you will get your package and get rid of your winter blues:
1. Sign up for your PokerStars account here!
2. Play the 10th Anniversary Giveaway Freerolls that starts every 10th minute (ALREADY UP & RUNNING BUT ONLY 1 FREEROLL per DAY per PLAYER!) and qualify for the weekly PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Final.
3. Win the weekly final!

Mr.Negreanu continues: "There will be tons of cash prizes for bankrolls of all sizes, plus giveaways and a $10 million Sunday Million event."
You read it! The Sunday Million will be the Sunday $10 Million on the 18th of December. The buy-in remains the same but the winnings are decupled. The winner will cashout $2,000,000 guaranteed! For an easy $215 you'll get a seat but for those of us that think a direct buy-in is too easy there is a satellite journey for as little as $1 to embark on.

PokerStars will announce more anniversary promotions shortly.

Vanessa Rousso, 27, has just won the Ladies Event of PokerStars Caribbean Adventure in Bahamas. She made it to the final table as chip leader and then nothing could stop her from taking down the tournament and the first prize of $24,725. Even though many of the players who took part in the ladies event had qualified online at PokerStars, Vanessa had to fight hard to reach the final table as pros like Annette Obrestad and J.J Lui were in the tournament as well.

"There were a couple of pros who played. J.J. Lui was in there, Annette Obrestad. There was a bunch of good players. Obviously you have to run well in any tournament you play in. But I didn't make any mistakes that I know of, I played well and I'm happy with the way I played. Starting the year off with a victory is really cool"; Vanessa said in an interview after the victory.
