PokerStars Set to Return in Ontario as FanDuel Poker Launch Date Confirmed

Ontario players finally have a date for the return of PokerStars as the platform under new branding and new platform returns on June 3.

No need to book a flight, the WSOP bracelets are coming to you online, this weekend.

As Ivan writes on fuse, 30 bracelets are up for grabs online, with three tournaments kicking off this weekend.

Saturday features the $400 NL Hold’em Kick Off, which Ivan suggests could be a smart pick for anyone looking for a smaller field. Sunday offers two more events: the $555 Mystery Bounty with a $1 million guarantee and the $888 Crazy 8’s. Ivan singles out Event #2 as the one to watch, writing:

The tournament comes with a huge $1,000,000 guarantee and some pretty sweet mystery bounties hidden inside those digital envelopes once the players reach the ITM stage.

With an online event every Tuesday and more over the weekends, there’s plenty of action for those who prefer online to live poker.

For those of us not in Vegas, we are living for posts like this.

Are changes needed to the Poker Hall of Fame inductee process?

PokerStars pro David Lappin thinks so.

By raising the age to fifty, inducting two players per year, and recognizing builders on a regular cycle, those deserving of recognition will no longer languish on the ballot for years. Most importantly, though, I think this system would maintain the Hall’s core purpose: to honour those who shape the game for generations, whether through extraordinary skill, exceptional longevity, pioneering influence, or systemic innovation.
