BetRivers Poker has set out a 15-day Multi-State Summer Series that runs from August 2 to 16. The festival will feature 96 championship events and more than $450,000 in guaranteed prize pools for registered players in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Delaware and West Virginia.
According to PokerNews, players will compete for BetRivers Summer Series trophies, with daily satellite tournaments offering a path into championship events. The schedule mixes deepstack, progressive knockout, six-max, hyper turbo and PLO formats, alongside marquee weekend majors aimed at a range of bankrolls and playing styles.
At the top of the card is a $200 buy-in Main Event with a $35,000 guarantee on Sunday, August 16. BetRivers says up to eight events will run each day across two buy-in brackets, with Silver events starting as low as $3 and Gold events reaching $200.
The series also has Gold and Silver leaderboards. Players earn points by cashing in MSS events, and only their best five results count, which means missing some tournaments does not eliminate a player from contention.
The Gold leaderboard will pay $8,500 to the top 20 players, including $1,400 for first place and $150 for 20th. The Silver leaderboard will distribute $1,500 to the top 25, with $400 for the winner and $10 for 25th. Across both leaderboards, more than $10,000 in tournament tickets will be awarded.
Each champion will receive a unique trophy, which is sent to the player’s address. Satellite information and leaderboard details are available in the BetRivers Poker client and at BetRiversPoker.com.
BetRivers is also running a Road to the Multi-State Summer Series promotion. One Pokerfuse report said it runs from July 19 through August 1 and awards 600 satellite tickets worth $10,000 every week, while another said it runs until August 6 and offers 600 tickets worth $10,000 in total through regular multi-table tournaments and weekly draws.
The summer series sits within a wider multi-state network that Rush Street Interactive launched on June 10, 2025, when it brought BetRivers Poker into Delaware, Michigan and West Virginia after an earlier debut in Pennsylvania. The company said the expansion unified player pools across four states, allowing cross-state competition and creating bigger tournament prize pools, deeper cash-game fields and more consistent action.
