It was another great weekend for the world’s largest online poker room, PokerStar.com. The Sunday Million tournament, hosted every week by PokerStars with a $1,000,000 guaranteed prize pool, once again saw enough entries to escalate the GP to $1,276,400. Then again, can anyone remember the last time the PokerStars.com Sunday Million “didn’t” see a prize pool higher than the guaranteed? Me either…
An enormous field of 6,382 participants took to the tables at Poker Stars Sunday, all vying for the top prize of $158,657. Simply finishing in the top 1,017 would be worth at least a little cash in your pocket, though.
As the final table came together, nine hungry players competed for the top prize, well aware that they would all be pocketing at least $9,956 at this point in the tournament. In the end, however, it was “tEh_R3aLde4L” who emerged victorious, after defeating “Bolikk” in heads-up place for the 1st place victory.
While congratulations are certainly in order, the real pker story lies at the feet of 6th place finisher “jeffbeesdat”, who not only earned $33,825 in the PokerStars Sunday Million, but also managed a final table finish in the PokerStars $200k ‘Second Chance’ tournament, capturing 5th place an another 12,821, followed by an impressive run at the Full Tit Poker $750k Guaranteed that same day.
