Let me tell you something you probably didn’t know: PokerStars is running a $1,000,000 Guarantee Turbo Takedown Tournament on the last Sunday of every month (at 14:30 ET, which is 19:30 GMT or UTC). The game – Texas Hold’em. The style – No Limits. The direct buy in for this turbo-licious tourney is – 5,000 Frequent Player Points. There is cash no buy in, so the only way you can get into the tournament is to earn points by playing poker, and then convert them to an entry ticket. Another way to get into the tournament is through satellites. Entry to the satellites is as low as 10 FPPs. Again, no cash buy in.
One in every 3 players will win a cash prize. That’s real money for nothing.

Here’s how you can play in the $1 Million Turbo Takedown PokerStars Tournament:

  1. Download the PokerStars poker client for free. If you’re already a PokerStars player, simply click on the Poker Stars icon sitting on your desktop (or in your quick launch list, or wherever you put it).
  2. Get your seat in the tourney by either:
    1. Click on Events followed by Special and register directly using 5,000 of your hard-earned Frequent Player Points.
    2. Click on Events followed by Special followed by FPP Satellites and register to any of the dozens of satellites to the $1M event. There are satellites that start as low as 10 FPPs, all the way up to 5000 FPPs.
