Great news for smaller stakes poker fans, as the Pokerstars Micro-Millions event is set to return this July. There are 100 tournaments in this event, with a $22 buy-in ‘Main Event’ that saw the last winner boost their bankroll to the tune of $140,000.
I love this event and the recognition it gives to smaller stakes players – here are the key details you need to know:
Pokerstars Micro Millions Info
When: Thursday 12th July through to Sunday 22nd July.
