The PokerStars Stars Season kicked off in grand form over the weekend with a trio of Terminator PKO tournaments as well as the first event boasting a prize pool of seven-figures called the Season Kickoff Million PKO.
Along with the trio of Super Tuesdays and the three Daily Cooldowns that took place on October 29th, the Stars Season has already shelled out $1,867,988 to PokerStars players.
The $109 Season Kickoff Sunday Million PKO drew in 9,756 entrants on Day 1 and only 80 of those players made it to Day 2 with a few PokerStars Ambassadors finishing in the money places but failing to reach Day 2.
