2010 March 08, Mickey Doft

Another Sunday on the virtual felt is in the books as the major online poker sites ran their standard Sunday tournaments. The PokerStars Sunday Million had over 10,000 entrants again, four of whom emerged six figures richer. The biggest win went to "MAE9690", who pocketed $260,000 for claiming the victory. Bolivar "Ramux" Palacios captured the Sunday Warm-Up crown for $139,163.73.

Meanwhile at Full Tilt, "shiftzerg" won the $750,000 Guarantee for a $147,629.24 score. Second-place finisher "kwickfishycake" appears to be Paul Wasicka who was being congratulated on a number of Twitter feeds for his solid second-place finish in this event.
