Since the launch of the VIP Program on PokerStars in January of 2006, online poker players have enjoyed the benefits of perhaps THE most flexible player rewards program on the Net. With Frequent Player Points (FPP's) purchase options ranging from clothing and accessories to travel certificates and luxury vehicles, there's something in the PokerStars FPP Store for just about everyone. On Sunday, February 17th at 2:30pm ET, the most popular online poker site in the world will a $2 Million Guaranteed TURBO TAKEDOWN for a buyin of 10,000 FPP's.

This specific tournament will be unique in many ways. First of all, one in every three players will walk away with a cash prize (starting at $180). This means 4,000 players will cash if the 12,000 player cap is reached. Such a large bottom-tier payout is a rarity even in the Stars 'Supernova' VIP freerolls. However, the number that will truly make this tournament special is its first place prize... $200,000!

Players who don't feel like using that many FPP's can qualify for this unique tournament by participating in 'round the clock satellite tourneys for as little at 10 FPP's. PokerStars players interested in winning a Seat into the Turbo Takedown can do so by clicking on the 'EVENTS' tab, then 'SPECIAL' and 'FPP SATELLITES' in the main lobby.

The blind structure will be similar to other multi-table tournaments on PokerStars, with blinds increasing every 10 minutes, and each player will begin play with 3,000 chips. After blind Level #18, the structure will slow down. Cash payouts in the PokerStars Turbo Takedown will be as follows:
