WCOOP Challenge Series Returns

Wednesday, 12 March 2014

PokerStars has revealed that the WCOOP Challenge Series will return later this month.

The nine-tournament series will take place from 28-30 March with a guaranteed prize pool of $9m to be won.

More than $5m will awarded on the final Sunday with top billing going to the $2,100 Main Event and the $215 Sunday Million which will both have $2m guarantees.

The first WCOOP Challenge Series took place in December and awarded over $11m in eight events. Singapore's DEHELLHOUND took down the the Main Event for a $500,000 score.
