The PokerStars Summer Festival is underway with a two-month action-packed poker and casino extravaganza for PokerStars US players in New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, running from June 1 - July 31.
A variety of promotions and events are slated throughout June and July with Summer Stacks and Bonus Bonanza headlining, in addition to plenty of other festivities to take part in such as Happy Hours, Exclusive Throwables, Summer Slots, and more.
You’ll be able to win exclusive merch through giveaways, and other exciting events on the schedule include Spin & Go Jackpots, Card Hunter, Freerolls, and Half Price Sundays. Special surprises and mystery prizes are also in store as the festival continues.
Summer Stacks
Summer Stacks is a poker tournament series running from June 9 to June 26, featuring 100 events all for $100 or less. Summer Stacks PA offers $1.25M in total guaranteed prize pools, while Summer Stacks MI-NJ features $1.5M in total guaranteed prize pools.
With buy-ins ranging from $10 to $100, it’s a fantastic series for low and mid-stakes players. There will also be opportunities to qualify for even less, with traditional satellites and $1 Spin & Go’s giving players other ways to get in on the action.
Fans of mixed games will be happy to know there will also be offerings of variants other than Hold’em, such as PLO, PLO8, H.O.R.S.E, 8-Game, Badugi, and Razz.
The $100 Main Events will be two-day tournaments starting on June 25th, with a $100,000 guarantee in Pennsylvania and a $125,000 guarantee in the merged market of Michigan and New Jersey. Additionally, players can win exclusive merchandise as a “trophy” in select events, including the Main Event.
