$1 MILLION TURBO TAKEDOWN
Why not warm up for SCOOP by taking a shot at the PokerStars Turbo Takedown. With a total prize pool of $1 Million up for grabs every month, the NLHE Turbo Takedown event has a 5,000 FPP entry fee and a guaranteed $100,000 first place prize, with at least one in every three players getting paid! This gives you a great chance to turn those spare FPPs in your account into some serious cash.
If you don’t want to use that many FPPs to enter the tournament, you also have the chance to win your seat at the Turbo Takedown tournament through one of our regular satellites. Starting from as little as 10 FPP, these qualifiers can be found under the Tourney > Satellite tab in your PokerStars lobby.
Even better, we also have a series of ten tournaments in our Turbo Takedown Giveaway that will award 100 seats each to the main event for a buy-in of just 20 FPPs. In total, we will give away 1,000 seats and tournaments will take place hourly from 12:00 ET to 21:00 ET on Saturday February 21. These qualifiers can also be found under the Tourney > Satellite tab.
The $1 Million PokerStars Turbo Takedown takes place on the last Sunday of every month at 14:30 ET (this month on February 22) and is located under the Tourney > Regular tab in your PokerStars lobby.
For a tournament with no cash buy-in and a guaranteed prize pool of $1 Million, places fill up fast. Claim your seat today!
After that it’s time to prepare for SCOOP. Choose your event, decide what stakes you’re comfortable playing and challenge for your share of the $30 Million guaranteed prize pool!
