The 2011 WCOOP will be a 23-day, 62-tournament journey with $30 million in guaranteed prize-money up for grabs!
Despite the decreased activity since Black Friday shutting out all US poker players, the $30 million in guaranteed prize money is more than PokerStars offered for all but the last two WCOOP’s. Although it will likely be a significantly smaller Main Event, that last year pulled in over $12 million.
