SCOOP now falls just $5 million short of hitting the magical nine-figure and also equaling the record for the biggest guaranteed online tournament series which now belongs to GGPoker’s WSOP Super Circuit Series that guarantees a monstrous $100 million.

At the time of writing, 54 SCOOP tournaments have completed generating over $25 million in prize money.

Looking at how things have gone so far, there is a possibility that the operator could further raise SCOOP guarantees by another $5 million and hit the $100 million mark.
