Satellites are available for all the events, and start from as low as $0.11 or 1FPP, which will allow may of us to play events for a fraction of the advertised costs. You can find the satellites on the PokerStars client under Events > SCOOP> All.
Mickey Petersen at the UKIPT Series
Winner of Season 8’s Copenhagen EPT, and member of PokerStars Team Online, Mickey “moment_mori” Petersen said: “SCOOP is one of the highlights of the year for me – a massive array of tournaments, a huge choice of different games and stakes to suit everyone. I still haven’t won one though, so I’ll be trying to tick that box on my ‘poker goals’ list in May.”
The schedule can be found here, for those of you wanting to read it.
