Tournament overlays are generally the territory of smaller sites trying to attract customers, not of the major players who regularly fill their tournament lobbies with thousands of entrants. PokerStars is bucking that trend with a sick tournament promotion for their WCOOP (World Championship of Online Poker) – Extreme Satellites.
What are Extreme Satellites? They’re confusingly named, for one – they should be called ‘Tons of Seats Added Satellites’, because that’s what they are – a long list of satellites to various WCOOP events with tons of seats added to each one- 50-100 extra seats, to be precise. The total overlay across all of the sattys: over 1 million bucks.
The WCOOP is a series of 42 tournaments with over $40 million in guaranteed prize money that gets underway in September. Full schedule here.
