Up to More Than 1,000 Entries
With more than 300 qualifiers for the $25,000 PokerStars NL Hold'em Players Championship, PokerStars set the bar pretty high already and many poker players were betting on the over and under in terms of total numbers. One magical number often mentioned in said bets was likely the 1,000 and all those that put their faith in a four-digit field size have just been given the official confirmation by PokerStars' Toby Stone.
Midway through the sixth level, the screens show a total of 1,002 entries of which 880 remain and the registration remains open until the start of Day 2.
