SCOOP’s Debut in Michigan

Last year was the first time the PokerStars SCOOP series entered Michigan. The state went live with its online poker platform during 2021, which was also the same year online sports betting and internet casino gaming also debuted.

To commemorate the occasion, PokerStars offered $2 million in guarantees for Michigan players. MISCOOP ended up breaking the guarantee and giving out more than $2.3 million.
