PokerStars Running Ten-Deuce Freeroll On Oct. 2 To Celebrate Doyle Brunson

Matt Hansen

Level 25 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 2,500 ante

PokerStars will be honoring the late Doyle Brunson with a Ten-Deuce Freeroll in celebration of the hand made famous by the Godfather of Poker, who passed away in May.

The Ten-Deuce freeroll, a reference to the hand that led Brunson to victory in consecutive World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Events, will fittingly take place on Oct. 2, the last day of the currently underway 2023 North American Championship of Online Poker (NACOOP).

In the shared market of New Jersey and Michigan, players will have the chance to win a piece of the $10,200 prize pool, while the Pennsylvania and Ontario markets will each have their own $10,200 prize pools up for grabs.
