By now, you likely have heard that PokerStars intends to break a world record on Dec 28th. The plan is to have 35,000 people playing in the same poker tournament at the same time. The $11 buy-in $500,000 guaranteed tournament is set to break the Guinness world record for the biggest poker tournament ever. Not only could you say you played in a record-breaking tournament, you could win a bunch of money. You can sign up under Tourney and Special for the December 28 15:30 ET time event.
