PokerStars Exclusively on FanDuel is giving US tournament players another reason to log in regularly, introducing a weekly leaderboard tied to its Nightly Stars series.
The promotion will distribute $2,500 in tournament tickets each week to the leading performers in Nightly Stars events. The player who finishes atop the leaderboard will receive $500 in tickets, while rewards extend down to the 74th-place finisher, who earns a $10 ticket to the 2nd Chance All In Shootout.
Leaderboard points are earned by cashing in any Nightly Stars tournament, with each dollar won counting as one point. Nightly Stars events run nightly from Monday through Saturday at 6:40 p.m. local time.
Tickets awarded through the leaderboard must be used within two weeks, expiring 14 days after issue. Nightly Stars tickets specifically carry a slightly longer 21-day expiration window.
The inaugural leaderboard runs from August 24-29, after which standings will reset for the following week, August 31 through September 5.
PokerStars North America partnered with FanDuel earlier this year to create the multi-state PokerStars on FanDuel platform, a collaboration that has drawn favorable feedback from players so far. The new leaderboard adds to that momentum and is currently available exclusively to users in Michigan, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, as well as Ontario, Canada.
