PokerStars Tourney Comes with Hefty Buy-In

PokerStars will host an online Super High Roller NLHE tournament with what may be one of the priciest online buy-in's in history at $51,000. The record for the steepest online buy-in was for an online poker tournament with a $25,000 buy-in shared by heads-up tournaments in the World Championship (2008, 2009, 2010) and Spring Championship of Online Poker (2009, 2010, 2011). The Super High Roller will kick off on September 20, 2015 as part of the World Championship of Online Poker. “Over the last few years we have seen the emergence of Super High Roller events at live events across the globe,” said Team PokerStars Pro member Daniel Negreanu. “I think it only makes sense that the world's largest poker site is also the host of the largest buy-in online poker tournament ever. “ The event starts at 12:30 US ET; 17:30 British Summer Time; 18:30 Central European Summer Time on most of PokerStars' websites.
