Stake Poker is set to celebrate Stake.com's ninth birthday with a special one-off bounty tournament that combines a low buy-in with a guaranteed prize pool and knockout rewards. 

Scheduled for August 8, the event gives players the opportunity to compete for a share of a $90,000 guaranteed prize pool while earning instant bounty payouts for eliminating opponents.
