Welcome to Day 2 of the historic 14th Anniversary Sunday Million at PokerStars!
The tournament was guaranteed to make PokerStars history with the massive $12.5 million guarantee greater than any tournament ever ran in the 19-year history of PokerStars.
The guarantee turned out to be merely a placeholder with yesterday's Day 1 attracting 85,435 entrants to generate a $17,087,000 prize pool. The total prize pool will continue to grow with late registration open until 5 p.m. GMT and the action resuming five minutes later at 5:05 p.m. GMT.
Curiously, the top ten players in the chip counts come from ten different countries, but only one could end Day 1 as the chip leader. That was "nowwor880" ahead of "X_QQ_AA_KK_fish", who will begin play today as the only players with over 600,000 in chips.
