The Sunday Million that took place at PokerStars on June 5 was part of the online poker site's KO Week, meaning the format switched to a progressive knockout tournament. It proved popular, which is good news for PokerStars because it is changing the Sunday Million to a PKO event permanently; more on that shortly.
One player who must be pleased with the Sunday Million's format change is Germany's "Canyoh" because they took down the KO Week edition, outlasting a field of 9,957 players to bank $81,104, which included $22,956 from the bounty prize pool.
