Christmas Festival on PokerStars
PokerStars is getting into the Holiday Spirit, inviting players to win a share of $10 million through a series of great promotions. With some of the years most enticing tournaments on the schedule plus millions up for grabs via their Christmas Calendar giveaway, it's time to hit the tables.
Daily Double Jackpot Tournament Series
From November 16th - 29th PokerStars players will have the opportunity to play for $1 Million through the new Daily Double Jackpot series. Every day during the promotional period there will be three separate pairs of Daily Double tournaments:
| Tournament Name | Time | Buy-in | Guarantee (Monday- Saturday) | Sunday Guarantee |
| $1.10 Daily Double 1 $1.10 Daily Double 2 | 13:00 ET | $1.10 | $5,000 | $10,000 |
| $11 Daily Double 1 $11 Daily Double 2 | 14:00 ET | *$11 | $50,000 | $125,000 |
| $55 Daily Double 1 $55 Daily Double 2 | 15:00 ET | *$55 | $75,000 | $250,000 |
If you place first in two Daily Double tournaments of the same buy-in, on the same day and time, you’ve won the $1,000,000 jackpot. Each Daily Double event held from Monday - Saturday will also randomly award one table (up to nine players) with two free $55 tickets (each) to use in that Sunday’s $250K guaranteed Daily Double.
Christmas Calendar - $2 Million in Prizes
PokerStars’ version of the Advent Calendar begins December 1st and is set to award $2 million in prizes. Christmas Calendar doors will open at 00:00 ET every day starting on December 1st. Players can locate their Christmas Calendar within the ‘Challenges’ window of their PokerStars Desktop or Mobile app. Visit your Calendar every day for a new offer including popular promos such as the Golden SNGs, Milestone Hands, PCA Giveaways, Mega Bonuses, and more.
$5 Million Guaranteed ‘Sunday Million’
Poker’s largest weekly tournament, the Sunday Million, is getting a festive makeover for the holiday season. On Sunday, December 27th, players are invited to play for a piece of the $5 Million guaranteed prizepool with at least $500K up top for the eventual winner. Buy-in directly for just $215, or qualify for as little as $1 through one of the many available satellites.
