Big Action on the Opening Day
It’s become somewhat of a tradition for online festivals to kick off with some big events, and the 2024 WCOOP Boot Camp sticks to that tradition.
Today, Sunday, August 4, brings a nice selection of tournaments with generous guarantees, highlighted by the special edition of the $109 KO Sunday Million.
Coming in at the $55 buy-in is Event #03, a Progressive KO Mini Bounty Builder HR, featuring a generous promise of a quarter of a million!
For high rollers out there, Event #5, the $5,200 Titans event comes with a guarantee of $200,000, alongside the $1,050 Sunday High Roller (Event #4), promising at least $125,000 in prizes.
In addition to these few select events, there are a total of 16 WCOOP Boot Camp tournaments taking place today (eight from each orbit), including the $11 and $109 Boot Camp Opener events, featuring guarantees of $40k and $75k, respectively.
100 Passes & Tickets up for Grabs in Leaderboard Prizes
On top of the more than $10,000,000 in guarantees that will be claimed by players over the course of the series, there is also the 2024 WCOOP Boot Camp Leaderboard, awarding 100 PokerStars Passes and Sunday Million tickets to the top performers.
Players will earn leaderboard points based on their results in Boot Camp events with buy-ins of up to $530, and the top 100 performs will claim the following prizes:
- 1st to 6th – $10,300 WCOOP Gold Pass
- 7th – 20th – $2,500 WCOOP Silver Pass
- 21st – 100th – $109 Sunday Million Ticket
These leaderboard prizes provide additional reasons to get involved and grind hard during the series, and with two buy-in orbits, all players have a fair shot at finishing in one of the top 100 positions.
Free Training Available
PokerStars has partnered up with BBZ Poker to offer some free poker training over the first week of the Boot Camp (August 3 – 9), giving you a chance to pick up some quality poker knowledge along the way.
There are daily live streams featuring the likes of Alex “Pwndidi” Theologis, Mason “pyefacepoker” Pye, and Andy “bowieeffect” Wilson.
Streams are arranged in a way where they focus on the next day’s action, so if there is a big KO tournament coming up, the training stream will be about knockout tournaments.
