PokerStars PA has been playing around with its guarantee for its biggest event of the week, the Sunday Special. Even though the guarantees have been crushed each week after an increase, the online poker operator reduced the guarantee from $100,000 to $70,000 this week. This is understandable considering the many other big events players have to choose from during the PASCOOP.

That being said, the $70,000 guarantee slapped on last Sunday's event was still almost double the $40,000 guarantee a month prior.

  • March 15 - $50,000 Guarantee
  • March 22 - $75,000 Guarantee
  • March 29 - $100,000 Guarantee
  • April 5 - $70,000 Guarantee

The guarantee was smashed with 733 entries and 343 re-entries generating a huge $98,777 prize pool with 177 players collecting at least a min-cash of $185.

It took more than 8 1/2 hours for "Aerarcher9162" to claim the biggest prize in regulated online poker networks in Pennsylvania after they shipped the event for $16,028.

Joining this player on the podium were "cowboys3434" (second - $11,524) and "tjl5124" (third - $8,256).
