Gremlins in The Works Fail To Ruin PokerStars Sunday Million

This weekend's PokerStars Sunday Million was plagued by technical glitches that delayed the start time, but the company made good on the wait by contributing an additional $100,000 to the prize pool.

The added pool attracted a whopping 6,672 entrants all in the chase for a share of the $1,434,400 spoils.

In the end, the top 4 players split the pool, dividing the cash between a top prize of $123,346 down to a fourth place $88,383.

Two of the four were gone within 15 minutes of the deal, leaving �OnlyHope� and �Fiveofakind� to battle it out. With a chip count of $52 million against his opponent's $11.9 million, it didn't look like much of a contest. However, the game was far from over, and the chip lead changed on two occasions before the final hand, where an eventual all-in call saw both players laying down $29 million or more.

But it was �OnlyHope� who prevailed, taking the game and the cash.
