The schedule for the fifth edition of PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker has been released. Last year PokerStars guaranteed $30,000,000 and the turn out was so good that about $48 million was won by players from all over the world.
This year's prize pool has not been decided yet, but we can expect it to be about the same amount as last year - if not even greater! The tournament schedule looks almost the same as last year, and the tournament series will kick off on Sunday, September 2 with three events: $215 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Max, $10,300 No-Limit Hold'em High Roller and $215 No-Limit Hold'em. In total, PokerStars 2012 WCOOP include 62 events that will be played over a period of about 3 weeks.
