The 2017 PokerStars Championship Bahamas kicked off with 54 entries to the $100,000 Super High Roller event, which boded well for a schedule featuring a handful of buy-ins at $10,000 and above. But there was a market for more action and PokerStars added six new big buy-in events to the schedule.
The first event was scheduled to kick off Saturday afternoon but actually didn’t run – potentially due to too many interested players were still in the $100K SHR event. The mind-numbing 13 re-entries indicate players are itching for action and have plans of nearly an additional $100,000 of buy-ins.
Added Events
Event 93 – $25,500 NL Hold’em Single Re-entry (25 minute levels) – January 7 (4 pm)*
Event 94 – $10,200 NL Hold’em Hyper Turbo (10-minute levels) – January 9 (10 pm
Event 95 – $10,200 NL Hold’em Hyper Turbo (10-minute levels) – January 10 (10 pm)
Event 96 – $25,500 NL Hold’em Singe Re-entry (30-minute levels) – January 11 (12 pm)
Event 97 – $10,200 NL Hold’em Hyper Turbo (10-minute levels) – January 11 (10 pm)
Event 98 – $15,300 NL Holdem Single Re-entry (20-minute levels) – January 13 (6 pm)
