The PokerStars\u2019 2020 Turbo Series<\/em> is now underway! The tournament series kicked off on April 5, and will run through to April 19, with at least $25 million in guarantees up for grabs. This money will be spread across a total of 114 events!<\/p>\n The 2020 Turbo Series is another exciting addition to the growing list of huge online events scheduled for April. <\/p>\n partypoker is hosting the 2020 Irish Open Online<\/a> which begins on April 12, while its popular POWERFEST<\/strong> now extended until April 19. An astonishing $50 million guarantee is also on offer in the ongoing GGSeries which runs until April 26<\/a>. <\/p>\n Each event on the schedule will be played in either turbo or hyper-turbo blind structure, and while majority of the events are No-Limit Hold\u2019em, the schedule also includes a mix of other poker variants, such as Pot Limit Omaha, H.O.R.S.E., No-Limit Omaha Hi\/Low, Limit Hold\u2019em, 5-card Omaha and 8-Game<\/strong>. <\/p>\n Slight changes have also been introduced this year, including the omission of 6-card Omaha events<\/a>. The schedule also does not include micro-stakes events with buy-ins lower than $11. But the good news is, players with limited bankroll can win their way into the bigger buy-in events by taking part in tons of satellites running throughout the series.<\/p>\n The series culminates in not just one, but two Turbo Series Main Events with a combined guaranteed prize pool of $3 million. The first Main Event has a buy-in of $55, and will award $1 million in prize money, while the other has an entry fee of $1,050, carrying at least $2 million in guarantees. Both events will take place on the final day of the series, April 19 at 8:30pm.<\/p>\n High roller fans will also be delighted to know that a $5,200 buy-in High Roller event will take place on the same day at 7:00pm, CET, where players will compete for a total guaranteed prize pool of $750,000.<\/p>\n Previously known as the Turbo Championship of Online Poker<\/em> (TCOOP), the annual fast-paced Turbo Series usually takes place every January, however this year, it had to be moved to a later month to give way for the Bounty Builder Series. Last year, Swedish poker pro Robin \u201crobinho\u201d Ylitalo<\/a> walked away as the biggest winner after taking down the $1,050 Main Event for $322,000. <\/p>\nSeries Highlights<\/h2>\n
