WCOOP 2004

Is anyone else as pumped as I am for this? To me this is why pokerstars is far and away the best on the internet. I'm going to try and play as many of the events as possible. The 2,500 no limit tourney should be HUGE! Hopefully there will be more online events like this in the future

How come I can only find info on the 2003 WCOOP at their website??? Where is this years?

I wasn't around tournaments last year, how strong is the field likely to be? I'm guessing a lot of pros will play.

within the pokerstars software there is a tab solely devoted to the WCOOP

yes definately some pros are going to play the main event....1,200,000 is already for sure goign to be in the prize pool...i'm sure it will go over that

Last years WCOOP had several $100 events, this year $200 appears to be the cheapest and the rest range from $500 to $2500 for the main event.

I really think they should have had at least a few $100 events keeping it within the realm of possibility for the recreational low limit player. I guess there's always Satellites.

I wholeheartedly disagree.

Are there not enough $100 buyin tournaments online already?

Truth is, I think the whole thing oughta be a little pricier (or spendier, as my coo-coo English nutball girlfriend likes to say).

Anyway, it should be--I dunno-- a bigger deal, perhaps?

The stars fields are always toughest as far as online goes.

There's $100 tourneys every day, we don't need anymore.
