The first-ever Pennsylvania Championship of Online Poker (PACOOP) has recently come to an end, and the event has made a huge mark on the state\u2019s gaming market. Attracting thousands of players, the inaugural PACOOP smashed its overall guarantee by over 25%<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When PokerStars first announced the PACOOP, it was only a couple of weeks before the event was set to begin on November 30th<\/sup>. However, word spread quickly, and over 10,000 players<\/strong> made sure to enter the PACOOP\u2019s 50 events. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The most tempting part about the online poker tournament was that there would be a total $1.225 million prize pool across all of the events in the PACOOP. This is surely what attracted players to the tournament, which then resulted in PokerStars exceeding its guarantee. In the end, the total prize pool of $1.55 million. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nPACOOP\u2019s Biggest Events <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
