Sunday Million

PokerStars ran its 11th Anniversary special of the Sunday Million this weekend, which boasted of a $10 million guaranteed prize pool for only a $215 buy-in. Not only was the guarantee hit, the 55,835 entries were playing for a massive $11,167,000.

Germany��s ��Jack17444�� fired two bullets at the Sunday Million but was the unfortunate soul who burst the bubble, falling in 9,207th place. His elimination meant everyone else was in the money and had locked up at least $326.07.

By the time the nine-handed final table was reached, the minimum prize anyone was taking home weighed in at an impressive $78,086. Zac ��RTAPEX�� Vigar collected this sum and was followed to the rail by fellow Australian ��NormyDozer,�� a player who re-entered twice and banked $108,601.

Seventh place and $151,042 went to ��v0nder�� before the last remaining British player, Peter ��peter804�� Thompson, bust in sixth place for a bankroll-boosting $210,069.

Another player, ��girafganger,�� had fired multiple shots at this event but fell in fifth place for $292,163 while Columbia��s ��gabito h261�� secured a $406,341 payday by finishing in fourth place.

Each of the final three players were guaranteed more than half a million dollars, yet there was no deal struck. ��TranBrothers�� of Vietnam ended the tournament in third place and locked up a $565,140 score, leaving Sweden��s ��Mouzen�� and ��Xavi666�� of Panama to lock horns heads up.

At 10:39 a.m. BST, Xavi666 eliminated Mouzen in second place to be crowned Sunday Million 11th Anniversary champion, an accolade worth a gigantic $1,093,204; Mouzen banked $785,999 which will no doubt ease the pain of being runner-up.
