PokerStars has bumped the value of their online tournaments up quite a bit and this will give players access to millions of dollars each week! The Sunday Majors, the Daily Bigs as well as the Saturday Line-Up have all seen increases and the largest increases can be found on Sundays!

Players can view the changes that have been made to the guaranteed tournaments by clicking on the Promotions tab at PokerStars and then clicking on the Tourney-changes options. Just an example of how the prize pools have been increased can be seen in the Sunday 6-Max and the Sunday Supersonic.

The Sunday 6-Max usually has a prize pool of $60,000 and it has now been increased to $100,000. The Sunday Supersonic offers even more cash with a previous guarantee of $40,000 that has now been raised to $125,000!

So as you can see, the guarantees have grown quite large at PokerStars! Players can compete in the newly changed guaranteed tournaments by buying-in directly or they can earn this seat by participating in a satellite tournament connected to the event.
