Get ready for
MicroMania – a whole month dedicated to
PokerStars smallest games. If you’re a micro-stakes player, then you have something special to look forward to this July.
There are improved
VIP benefits, added-value
tournaments, big
live event qualifiers and even
deposit bonus offers!
Click on the links below to jump to your favorite game type, or simply scroll down to see all the information you need.
Bonuses
If you haven’t experienced the exciting world of
real money play yet, then there’s never been a better time to make your first deposit. Use the code ‘
MANIA’ and you’ll receive
PokerStars 100% first deposit bonus up to $600. You’ll also receive a
free $1.10 ticket that gives you entry into any of the special $1.10 events listed on this page.
Existing real money players can get in on the action too! Make a deposit with the code ‘
MICRO’ and you’ll instantly receive the same
MicroMania $1.10 tournament ticket.
The minimum deposit at PokerStars is just
$10, and there are many
convenient deposit methods to choose from. Your
MicroMania tournament ticket will expire at the end of July, so don’t forget to use it once you’ve made your qualifying deposit.
Cash Games
Play in our designated
micro-stakes cash games from now until
July 31 and you’ll receive at least
50% extra VIP rewards! For every Dollar raked at our cash game tables,
10 VIP Player Points (VPPs) will be credited to the table - that’s up from the usual rates of 5.5 VPPs for 6-Max and 6 VPPs for full ring games. Our Euro games will be boosted to award
12.5 VPPs per Euro raked, instead of the usual 8 to 8.5 VPPs rate.
That means you’ll earn
Frequent Player Points (FPPs) much faster, and you’ll clear any pending bonuses nearly twice as fast!
This offer applies to all No Limit and Pot Limit ring games up to and including
$0.05/$0.10, and all Fixed Limit games up to and including
$0.10/$0.20.
Multi-Table Tournaments
For the whole month of July, four $1.10 No Limit Hold’em tourneys will run every day – all with
$1,000 added! They’re called
MicroMania Specials and they take place at the following times:
10:20 ET,
13:20 ET,
19:20 ET &
22:20 ET.
To locate the events go to the ‘
Tourney’ and ‘
Special’ tabs in the PokerStars lobby. You can also search for them by opening the Tourney Filter and typing
MicroMania into the search field.
Sit & Go’s
MicroMania $1.10 Super Sit & Go tourneys will run
July 1-31. Win one and you’ll get a share of
$100,000! The prize pool will be divided among all the players that win a
MicroMania Super Sit & Go in July, with the credits being made by August 2.
Here’s how it works - 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.
The
MicroMania Sit & Go’s will be 50-player No Limit Hold’em tournaments. You can play as many of the tournament as you like, but you will only be eligible for one share of the
$100,000 prize pool.
Events
It may be a month of low stakes promotions, but that doesn’t mean our big buy-in events have been forgotten!
Every Sunday in July, there are special value-added qualifying tournaments for the following:
- July 4 – LAPT Florianopolis
- July 11 – NAPT Los Angeles
- July 18 – EPT London
- July 25 – WCOOP Main Event
All four
MicroMania satellites will have a
$1.10 buy-in and will feature a regular prize pool. The
event package will be added to the first place prize – which means added value of more than
$5,000 for each event!
These tournaments will take place at
14:20 ET under the ‘
Events’ and ‘
Special’ tabs of the PokerStars software. You can find them quickly by typing
MicroMania into the Events Filter. Registration is open now, so take your seat today.
