This Sunday, September 11, 2016, will go down in the online poker history books, if there were such a thing. At 12:30 Eastern U.S. Time (18:30 Central European Time), the biggest ever buy-in tournament commences on PokerStars. Players are going to buy in for a whopping $102,000 for the 8-Max Super High Roller event number 28 on the World Championship of Online Poker schedule. With a guaranteed $2,000,000 prize pool, it's the second biggest event on the schedule, only outdone by the Main Event.
Last year, the Super High Roller format debuted online as part of WCOOP 2015 with a $51,000 buy-in event.
