In celebration of the shared player pool with France and Spain, PokerStars has launch a new series dubbed FRESH (France Espania Hold’em).
FRESH will become the richest ever PokerStars online series in France and Spain with Euro 5 million guaranteed across 50 scheduled events, including a Euro 1 million guaranteed Main Event prize pool and a Platinum Pass package to the PokerStars Players No Limit Hold’em Championship (PSPC) for the Main Event winner, the company revealed.
The series kicks-off January 28 and runs to February 11, with depositor freerolls, Spin & Go FRESH Main Event qualifiers, Second Chance Freerolls and opportunities to qualify for free available currently at the PokerStars lobby.
The poker giant is the first operator approved to offer shared liquidity between the two locally licensed online poker markets offering players larger guarantees, more games and reduced waiting times.
Severin Rasset, Director of Poker Innovation and Operations at PokerStars, said: After so many years of closed liquidity, it is a major milestone to offer the first online series that combines French and Spanish players.
We created this series by learning from both countries and we hope that players will enjoy the bigger prize pool and tournaments on offer.
