If you swim around the smallest stakes games online then PokerStars could be the place to be this July as the site is running a whole month of dedicated micro stakes promotions.
There is something for cash game regulars, MTT players or sit and go specialists to get excited this month with a host of tempting offers. Players participating in designated micro stakes cash games will receive at least 50% extra in VIP rewards. For MTT lovers there will be a series of four $1.10 tournaments every day throughout July with $1,000 added to the prize pool. They're called MicroMania Specials and take place at 3.20pm, 6.20pm, 12.20am and 3.20am UK time.$1.10 MicroMania 50-runner sit and go tournaments will run throughout July with the winner of each one getting a share of a $100,000 prize pool. For example if there are 12,650 MicroMania Super Sit & Go winners in July, every winner will receive a $7.91 ($100,000 / 12,650) share of the prize pool. Players who fancy mixing it with the pros in top live events can qualify in a series of MicroMania satellites. Perhaps of most interest to players from the British Isles will be the $1.10 EPT London qualifier on 18th July where a $5,000 package will be given away. There are also $1.10 satellites for LAPT Florianopolis on 4th July, NAPT Los Angeles on 11th July and the WCOOP Main Event in 25th July.Registration is already open at PokerStars.Keep up to date with all the news from the poker world by following us on Twitter and Facebook.
