PokerNews-Exclusive Satellites: 25x $109 Anniversary Series Main Event Seats Added

The poker community is buzzing with anticipation at the upcoming $50 million guaranteed Anniversary Series online at PokerStars. Massive guarantees are up for grabs, including an impressive $1.5 million in the $109 buy-in No-Limit Hold’em Main Event on May 24.

Thanks to the special relationship that PokerNews and PokerStars enjoy, PokerNews readers have the opportunity to turn a $5.50 investment into a shot at the $1.5 million guaranteed Anniversary Series Main Event.

Five PokerNews-Exclusive Satellites; 25x $109 Seats Added

Between May 10 and May 20, five PokerNews-exclusive satellites take place at PokerStars. They only costs $5.50 to enter, yet PokerStars is adding five seats to the $109 NLHE Anniversary Series Main Event to each. Additional seats will be won for every $109 in the prize pool.

Each PokerNews satellite’s structure is identical. Everyone sits down with 5,000 chips. The first two levels last 10 minutes, after which the tournament becomes a turbo with five-minute levels until the satellite concludes.

Blinds start at only 40/80/10a, and up to three re-entries are permitted during late registration, should your first bite (or two) of the cherry not go to plan.

At least five seats to the $1.5 million guaranteed $109 NLHE Anniversary Series Main Event are added to each PokerNews satellite, meaning more than $2,700 worth of added tickets will be scooped up by our loyal PokerNews readers.

Should you be fortunate enough to win a $109 seat to the $1.5 million guaranteed target tournament, you need to be ready to enter the mix at 5:30 p.m. BST on May 24. The $109 Main Event is a four-day affair, but the grind will be worth it if you go all the way because a huge slice of the $1.5 million guarantee prize pool will land in your PokerStars account. Imagine the bragging rights if you turned $5.50 into a six-figure sum!

You need a PokerStars account to play in any of these five PokerNews-exclusive satellites. If you don’t currently play at PokerStars, download PokerStars via PokerNews, enter the marketing code “STARS600” when creating your free account, then make a deposit safe in the knowledge that it will be matched 100% up to $600 in the form of a welcome bonus.

All you need to do then is enter the $5.50 PokerNews satellites and see if you can win one of the 25 added $109 NLHE Anniversary Series Main Event tickets. Good luck!
