The past two months were chockfull of great events for online poker players in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Michigan. That’s because PokerStars host a trifecta of its popular Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) in each state, which was live reported by PokerNews.
Between the trio of series, a combined $6.35 million in total prize pools was awarded – well ahead of the $5.2 million in guarantees – with over 117,000 entries competing and 406 champions crowned.
PokerStars’ stateside SCOOP series was the largest US online poker series of 2021 thus far with the Main Events in all three states collectively awarding more than $625,000.
