Another very profitable Sunday has passed for several players on the virtual felt. Four players pocketed over $100,000 on Sunday, with the biggest belonging to Joao Paulo "Ponga80" Aquino for winning the Sunday Million. Owen "ocrowe" Crowe took down the Sunday Warm-Up for a monster score, too. Michael "swisstard" Schurpf and Marc "dean23price" Wright also collected first-place finishes during online-poker's biggest day.

While the Sunday Million saw a slight dip in attendance this week, there were still three six-figure scores. When play was three handed, Trung "dynastyzz" Tran was all-in with A?J? and appeared primed to double up through Joao Paulo "Ponga80" Aquino's A?8?. The Q?6?3? flop was harmless, but the 8? hit the turn to give Aquino the lead. The 10? fell on the river, leaving play heads-up between Aquino and "kmichael14."

While at first a deal appeared imminent, Aquino decided against it before the numbers were presented, instead wanting to duke it out. It turned out to be the right decision for him because he took control of the match en route to victory. On the final hand, a series of preflop raises led to "kmichael14" being all-in and at risk with 9?9? against Aquino's Q?J?. The board ran out J?4?4?7?5?, clinching the tournament and $198,490.50 for Aquino.

$200+$153,241$648,200

Without a doubt, the biggest name at the Sunday Warm-up final table was Owen "ocrowe" Crowe. He entered the final table second in chips and made it to heads-up play with a sizable chip lead. His opponent, "assalbi," was not going to make things easy though. Crowe was in dominating position to end the tournament with A?10? against "assalbi's" A?8? but the board came down 7?5?4?5?6? to give "assalbi" a straight to survive and take the chip lead.

Crowe battled back and eventually held up with the better hand to retake the lead. His A?Q? dodged A?J? as the board ran out K?9?5?7?6?. He won the tournament shortly thereafter for a $101,768.21 payday.
