The PCA (PokerStars Caribbean Adventure) is back and is now better than ever. Players now have the chances to take part in the PCA for free by playing in one of many freerolls available.
Starting October 17th, tournaments well open up daily at the free buy-in level and the $1.10 buy-in level. These tournaments will run until December 5th. So you will have plenty of time to earn your free seat to the Caribbean.
If you happen to place top-9 in one of these first freerolls, you will be automatically given a ticket into the PCA Freeroll Fantasy Main Event. Other top-9 finishers will also be in this tournament. Placing top-9 again will earn you your $15,100 prize package which includes travel, buy-in, and extra cash for expenses.
