Nightly Stars results now feed a weekly prize race
The top performer each week receives $500 in tournament tickets, paid as five $100 Nightly Stars tickets. Second place gets three $100 Nightly Stars tickets, while third place gets two $100 tickets.
Prizes then scale down through the standings. Players finishing fourth through ninth receive one $100 Nightly Stars ticket. Tenth through 12th place get two $30 Sunday Shield tickets, while 13th through 16th receive one $30 Sunday Shield ticket.
Further down the board, 17th and 18th place earn two $10 Nightly Stars Satellite tickets, and 19th through 24th get one $10 satellite ticket. Places 25 through 74 receive a $10 2nd Chance All In Shootout ticket.
First leaderboard week is already underway
The first leaderboard runs through Aug. 29, with results set to reset for the next week on Aug. 31-Sept. 5.
Awarded tickets generally must be used within two weeks, though Nightly Stars tickets have a longer 21-day expiration window.
PokerStars North America partnered with FanDuel earlier this year. It is available at Michigan Online Casinos, New Jersey Online Casinos, and Pennsylvania Online Casinos.
