PokerStars is gearing up for the climax of its Spooky Season with a pair of special Sunday tournaments on November 1, designed to build momentum ahead of the $1 million guaranteed Sunday Million Spooky Season Finale on November 8.
Both the $5.50 Mini Spooky Sunday Special and the $75 Spooky Sunday Special begin at 6:05 p.m. GMT and feature a progressive knockout structure. The events carry guarantees of $25,000 and $250,000 respectively, bringing their combined guarantee to $275,000.
PokerStars Ambassador Kenny “SpaceyFCB” Hallaert will host both tournaments and play with a special bounty on his head. Any player who eliminates him will receive a $109 ticket into the Sunday Million Spooky Season Finale, in addition to his regular bounty value. This offer is unavailable to players in Belgium, Denmark, Germany, and Sweden.
The $5.50 event gives entrants 25,000 starting chips, with blinds beginning at 100/200/25a and increasing every ten minutes. Late registration runs for two and a half hours, allowing up to five re-entries. Each knockout pays at least $1.25, with bounty values rising significantly in the later stages.
The $75 tournament offers a 50,000 starting stack and a four-hour late registration window, also allowing five re-entries. Blinds start at 125/250/30a, with levels lasting 15 minutes before shortening to 12. Bounties here are worth at least $12.50. Satellites for this event range from $1.10 to $16.50, including a $5.50 satellite guaranteeing 75 seats.
The Sunday Million Spooky Season Finale itself runs across two days starting November 8, with a $109 buy-in and numerous satellites offering entry for as little as $11.
