The World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) at PokerStars is the largest annual online poker tournament series in the world. Last year, WCOOP's prize pools added up to over $47 million, including the year's largest single prize - over $1.2 million for first place in the WCOOP Main Event.

Yesterday, PokerStars announced the schedule for this year's WCOOP, set to begin on September 2nd. The series will last 22 days and include 62 events with buy-ins ranging from $215 through $10,300.
