The Sunday Million - Biggest Online MTT:


The Sunday Mion on Pokerstars is without a doubt the biggest tournament in any poker plrs weekly calender and rightly so with a guaranteed prize pool of o one mions dollars! Its so big that now all the Pokerstars Pros play it and with a first prize of two hundred thousand dollars most weeks its the win of a lifetime for any plr.


It normally gets somewhere in the region of 10,000 runners which es it bigger than the WSOP main nt itself. Plrs start with 10,000 chips each and the blinds begin at 25 50 mean eyone has 200 times the big blind. Howe the structure is quite fast and all lls last 15 minutes. The tournament normally goes on from o 15 hours which es it a real long haul for anyone who es it deep but the prizes on offer as sure worth the time invested.


The buy in to the Sunday Mion is 200 dollars plus 15 dollars r. This seems a bit too steep to some plrs but Pokerstars run many satetes to the tournament includ y low buy in rebuys which stars at 3 dollars and n some frequent plr point satetes in which you can qualify for free! For plrs who prefer sit and go's they run shoot out sit and go tournaments rang from 10 dollars and upwards. If you play on Pokerstars a lot then you can n use your frequent plr points to buy in directly.


If you are go to play the Sunday Mion then its y important to get a good nights sleep before hand and e sure that you don't need to be up the next morn as if you do well you could st be play. People w often ask if any special strategy is required in the mion but you shouldn't change the game that works for you, you should just be prepared for the long haul. You w require a lot of luck if you are go to e the final table but 9 people manage it ey week so there's no reason you shouldn't.


The best way to approach the Sunday Mion is to qualify cheaply and then you really have noth to lose. If you don't have to pay the full buy in then there is no harm in tak a few more risks and some aggressive plays early on to put you in a good position to go deep. A minimum cash is often o $1,000 so if you can get a couple of double ups early on then you are go to get a decent pay day whate happens. If you do manage to e it to the final table then you w find there is often a deal made between plrs to split the prize pool so e sure you have plenty of chips so you are on the right end of it.
