Sunday Briefing: 'Xavi666' Wins Almost $1.1 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.
