They didn't exactly have a chip and a chair, but with the field down to six players, foldbudiao and robinsex were left with seven and three big blinds respectively. Sitting in the shadow of a dominating chip leader that held twice as much as second place, the task in front...more

Something about the Sunday Million was off. It wasn't the $1 million guarantee; that remained the same as usual. It wasn't the thousands of players signing up to participate, as crowds always gather around the largest weekly tournament in online poker. The starting time hadn't changed, and some of the...more

"Angrymoron" could describe any of us from time to time as we play this game. Missing a value bet, making a bad call, believing the guy across the table when he goads you into calling against the nuts. We're all angry morons when we're at our worst at the tables....more

The month of June ushers in another very exciting few weeks of poker. Whether players are in Las Vegas for the live tournament action or on holiday from their respective homes around the world, it is a thrilling time for poker players. There may be more action from Sin City...more

It was deja vu all over again tonight for diegokeep. Only eight weeks ago, the Brazilian was living the dream, playing heads-up for a Sunday Million title while his poker idol Andre Akkari cheered him on from the rail. Although he fought his way back from a 3 to 1...more

It is an action-packed weekend at PokerStars. In addition to a final table getting underway at APPT Cebu, the EPT Grand Final Main Event is ready to find its 2012 champion on Monday in Monte Carlo. And the online poker geniuses are preparing for the upcoming SCOOP series to start...more

Does luck really come in streaks? Ask ten players and you'll get ten answers, but ask the final two in tonight's Sunday Million and you might find a couple of true believers. Eleven days ago, Russia's mypokerf defeated 462 of online poker's elite MTT grinders in the Super Tuesday, earning...more

The Sunday Million has a long, rich history of being the largest online poker tournament in the world. For many years, it has boasted of the largest guarantee of all weekly online events offered on any website, and its title holds the most prestige. "I won the Sunday Million" is...more

Many people around the world celebrated holidays this weekend. Many of them were poker players. But no matter the family commitments, rearrangements of dinners, or lack of sleep, poker players were not going to miss out on the great opportunities that await them in the Sunday majors. Miss out on...more

As this week's Sunday Million drew to a close, I couldn't help but think of the potential decibel level in the room if this heads-up match were playing out live. Over the years I spent on the tournament circuit I learned that there are no greater poker fans in the...more

Look, it's not a MicroMillions recap! This is something familiar, as it happens each and every Sunday. That's not to say the Sunday Million is mundane in any way, though. How can a $1 million guarantee be anything but exciting? Don't worry; I'm not waiting for an answer. True, the...more

Things have been a little busy around these parts. Last weekend, the Sunday Million celebrated its sixth anniversary with a monstrous special tournament that paid out more than $6.7 million. It took a few days to recover from that one. And starting this past Thursday, the MicroMillions kicked off a...more

Iron and sugar. Believe it or not, these two diametrically opposed elements are actually the traditional gifts for a sixth anniversary. Iron is supposed to signify strength and stability while sugar reflects the sweetness that (fingers crossed) still coats the relationship. Admittedly, PokerStars could have gone a lot of ways...more

So, take a look at the logo on the left there. Most weeks out of the year, that logo serves its purpose completely. That's because most weeks, PokerStars guarantees one million bucks for the Sunday Million. This week, that logo is useless to me except for serving as the perfect...more

The home page for the Sunday Million contains more than information about the weekly event and its satellites. For example, I found a section of facts that informed of the date of the first ever Sunday Million ... on March 5, 2006. That means tomorrow is this tournament's birthday! Interestingly,...more

When this week's Sunday Million dealt its final river card, we looked at the winner's name and knew we had seen it before. That's because the guy won the Sunday Storm just a week before. What's more, his Sunday Million win came by way of a 2,500 FPP VIP Club...more

It was a crowded house for this week's Sunday Million, 7,768 grinders taking their shot at six figures and sending the prize pool over the $1.5 million mark. 1,170 of them earned a slice of the pie with first place set to earn $233,043.87. Thirty members of the Red Spade...more

If I remember correctly, on my sixth birthday I got a horse-racing board game. It was a curious gift for a young boy that perhaps explains a subsequent interest in recreational, er, gambling. The reason I mention it, however, is that this sixth-birthday gift was worth a few dollars in...more

Following last week's "double vision" promotion, the Sunday Million regained its focus this time around. Just one tournament seems more special somehow, and indeed, as is the case every week, the weekly $215 buy-in no-limit hold'em tourney was special enough to attract yet another huge field of players all with...more

The last time we saw Kyle "KJulius10" Julius, he was heads-up in the PCA Main Event, bluff-shoving his unimproved nine-high into John Dibella's rivered flush. Although Julius departed the Bahamas with an extra $1.5 million in his pocket thanks to a deal, the exiled American pro fell just short of...more
