msaban Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Just looking at the Sunday Million lobby on PokerStars. Tonights prize pool is a massive $1,425,800.00, with the winner scheduled to get over $200K depending on final table deals. Cost of entry into this tourney is $215 direct buyin or win one of the many sat's on offer. However the field has over 7000 runners and with blinds up every 15 minutes, is it more like a freeroll than a serious game.If you get to the edge of the payouts, you make an extra $70 on top of the buy in fee, which at the current rate will take about 4 hours to get to, the final table in the past has taken approx 12hours. Nice to win, but is it worth stumping up for directly ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Re: Poker Stars Sunday Million - is it worth it ? I've been playing the 3am Mansion 100,000 gtd, and have been very disappointed with the structure...... but with in the region of 500 runners, there is $50,000 added - if you're prepared to be up through the night, I'd prefer this (still a crapshoot, but good value added!!!) The Sunday million at Pokerstars holds the dream, but if it's a crapshoot and if there's no overlay and if it takes all night (literally!!) then as you say, what's the point?

voiceofjoe Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Re: Poker Stars Sunday Million - is it worth it ? Mike - There is the European One now at a more attractive time (GaF has put a post up somewhere about it ). Its Guaranteed $250k, so a little watered down from the million, but better for us time wise. PS Nice to see the Man-Flu has gone :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msaban Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 Re: Poker Stars Sunday Million - is it worth it ? Hi Martyn Thanks, shame I missed friday. Ive played in the other one before -The Sunday Warm Up. Its basically very similar, just not as big a field. I think my point is, that PokerStars gears upto this tourney all week, but with that size of field a lot of luck is needed to get anywhere close.I suspose its the online equivalent of the WSOP main event.

Valiant23 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Re: Poker Stars Sunday Million - is it worth it ? I would say that it'd be nice to play in once, for the experience but if there really is that many runners then you're right, it is more like a prima freeroll than a proper tourney. Shame really.

avongirl Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Re: PokerStars Sunday Million Link thread for the diary so adding the up to date details from the site. :ok PokerStars Sunday Million PokerStars was the first online poker room to offer a weekly $1,500,000 guaranteed No Limit Hold'em tournament, and it gets better every week.
