If you like your online tournaments to last no more than a few hours then make sure you're ready for PokerStars' 2014 Turbo Championship of Online Poker (TCOOP).
Set to take place between January 23 and February 2, the latest incarnation of TCOOP will feature a total of 50 events and boasts a prizepool of $15 million. Following in the footsteps of SCOOP and WCOOP, TCOOP has proved immensely popular with virtual grinders thanks to its speed. Indeed, last year the averaging cashing time across the series was just over two hours (and just over one hour in hyper turbo events), so it's perfect for players who don't have a lot of time to spare. The pick of the schedule for many players will undoubtedly be the $700 Main Event which takes place on February 2 and has a $2 million guarantee. On top of this the organisers have ensured that the winner will get at least $300,000 which means someone could walk away with an impressive bankroll boost in just a few hours. To check out the full TCOOP schedule, click here. New players can join the TCOOP action with a 100% first deposit bonus of up to $600. Sign up at PokerStars.
