PokerStars US Bounty Series

From July 12-26, PokerStars will be offering American players in Pennsylvania and New Jersey respective Bounty Builder Series offering a combined $2.1 million in guaranteed prize pools.

Each series is called a “Bounty Builder Series” for a reason as each event will be played either in a traditional bounty or Progressive Knock Out (PKO) format.

The winners of special Championship events throughout the series will win Bounty Builder Series title belts. Plus, there’s also an exciting $16,000 KO Leaderboard for each state where those with the most knockouts during the Bounty Builder Series can win a prize, with the ultimate KO player walking away with a cool $4,000 prize.

$1,500,000 in Guarantees Coming to Pennsylvania

For Pennsylvania players, their 70-tournament series will run from July 12-26 and offer $1.5 million in guaranteed prize pools. Buy-ins range from just $10 all the way up to $500.

Among the 18 special Championship events throughout the series are a $250 buy-in, $30K GTD Sunday High Roller on July 12; a $200 buy-in, $50K GTD Thursday Thrill SE on July 16 and 23; and a $50 buy-in, $40K GTD Mimi Main Event on July 26.
