Even as PokerStars gets ready to deal its 70 billionth hand and award $750,000 to players for the thrill of being present in the lead-up to this milestone, the site announces that it’s also gearing up for its 10th Anniversary celebration.
Poker Stars is turning ten, and that means more bonus prizes for its loyal players. This special 10th anniversary sees Poker Stars putting out no less than 10 new special offers in celebration, revealed incrementally as time goes on. At present, only two of these 10 special offers have been anounced.
The first is a chance to win a trip to the Bahamas for the 2012 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure. To get a ticket in this special satellite event, make a deposit between November 1 and December 11, 2011 using the promo code: PCA100.
The second 10th anniversary offer revealed is a special $10 million Sunday Million, taking place on December 18, 2011 and promising a $2 million guaranteed first prize.
Stay tuned here as time goes on for updated information on the remaining eight special offers Poker Stars is churning out for its 10th anniversary celebration.
The upcoming 70 billionth hand to be dealt at Poker Stars, expected this November 2011, is also the most number of hands dealt at any poker site. But this isn’t the only world record Poker Stars has snagged in its ten years in operation. The site also boasts the most number of players online at the same time, in 2009 at over 300,000, and the biggest player field for a tournament, also in 2009 at 149,196.
