Sunday Million’s Two Million Guarantee Winner
Posted on February 5, 2010
Filed Under General
PokerStars is known for their Sunday Million Guarantee, but this past Sunday Million was a “Special Edition” with a $2 million guarantee. This turned out to be a record breaking tournament bringing 19,377 players to take part in the tournament. The previous Sunday Million record breaker was back in November which drew 18,283 players. With 19,377 players, the tournament had a very healthy prize pool of $3,875,400.
Going in to the final table celofyz33 was the chip leader with 37,219,555 chips, and hunter10999 was the short stack with 2,504,305. However, after all the action played out it was OX45AL who claimed the first place prize of $550,011.29.
After checking the stats of this mystery player who took down one of online’s most infamous events, it appears he is not the regular online grinder. According to Official Poker Rankings, OX45AL has logged very periodic play on PokerStars. In fact, he has less than 100 tournament entries from 2006-2010. Most of the tournaments he has played on PokerStars were between under $20. According to his online stats, it appears he has only played in one Sunday Million tournament, and was lucky enough to win it the first time.
Maybe OX45AL is a live pro. Maybe he plays on another site. Or maybe he is just that good. One thing is certain. He will probably be playing a whole lot more tournaments on PokerStars in the future.
