Following its debut in 2024, the PokerStars Mystery Bounty Series is returning for those in the site’s global player pool from July 13-21.
Altogether there are 55 events taking place across the nine-day online festival, each in the popular mystery bounty format. This twist on traditional multi-table tournaments holds back a certain portion of the prize money to be awarded to those who eliminate opponents once the tourney’s money-bubble has burst.
The number and amount of remaining mystery bounty prizes remains visible throughout the tournament, creating a fun sweat for players who can track how many big prizes are left, and how much they might make with the next elimination.
Two Main Events will award at least $625K
A range of bankrolls will be catered to, starting at just $5.50 and running up to $215. The festival features two Main Events, both taking place on July 20, at two different price points:
- The $109 Main Event will feature a $500K GTD prizepool
- The $11 Mini Main Event will award at least $125K
Additionally, a special $75 edition of the Sunday Special will run as a mystery bounty event, with $350K guaranteed. Each event on the schedule carries a guarantee, with $3M GTD across the series.
The beauty of mystery bounty tournaments is that players can win big prizes without necessarily reaching the final table. To learn more, or sign up to play, head to PokerStars.
