Win a Main Event Seat Through Depositor Freeroll
What better way is there to play an NACOOP Main Event than by winning a free ticket? You can have a chance to do so just by depositing money on PokerStars.
Players who deposit $50 or more using the code "COOP2023" will receive a ticket to a Main Event Depositor Freeroll on Oct. 1 that will award 50 $300 seats to the Main Event. The Freeroll also includes $15,000 in added prize money.
Plenty of players have already registered for the Main Event Depositor Freeroll, but it isn't too late to do so if you make a deposit on PokerStars.
Play With Poker Author Maria Konnikova
Another highlight of NACOOP is an opportunity poker players have to play on the virtual felt with acclaimed poker author Maria Konnikova.
On Sept. 28, PokerStars announced that Konnikova had returned as an ambassador for the poker site. Konnikova, who was initially a PokerStars ambassador back in 2018, will be playing on PokerStars from New Jersey, giving NACOOP participants a chance to play against the author of The Biggest Bluff.
“I'm very happy to once again be joining the PokerStars team as an ambassador," Konnikova said in a press release. "Poker is a game of skill that can teach us so much about our minds and ourselves — and I can't wait to share my passion for it along with the incredible team at PokerStars. I'm quite excited for the vision that PokerStars has for U.S. expansion and am thrilled to play a small part in helping the world appreciate the true beauty and promise of a game I have come to love.”
