SakiSaki wins the Largest Sunday Million Ever!

<img src="http://www.liquidpoker.net/images/avatars/lpps_flsweden%20copy.png" align="right" style="border:0px solid black;">Surprise, surprise! When we thought the year was over, <b>SakiSaki</b> (or would it be SickSick?) decides to steal the show and take down the Super Sunday Million! PokerStars added 1 million dollars to the usual $1,500,000 guaranteed prizepool, what was more than enough to make a sick number of 16,260 players decide to register in the tourney. The total prizepool was worth of <b>$3,252,000</b>, considerably more than the guaranteed prize. It was the biggest Sunday Million Ever, surpassing the former record of $2,836,200 prizepool and 14,181 registered players (<a href="http://www.liquidpoker.net/news/517887/TimDawg_takes_down_the_Sunday_Million!">TimDawg won that one</a>!). This special Sunday Million is part of the PokerStars World Record Week.

awesome, gratz

nice, biggest SMs are won by LPers

WOW

Insane.

holy balls
you are the man saki

saki ur are a sick sick swedish dude mad congrats

I don't understand the refusal to split which seems so common. You wouldn't take a shot at 500/1000 because of the variance. Why does that logic not also apply to the final 5 or so of a massive tournament?

If I ever got that far I'd be splitting with haste :D

so sick man. i'm jealous
i'll win one of these once in my lifetime, haha

holy crap

wow
awesome

huge..
lp like to break record

Gratz

congratulations.


I'm calling the next "biggest sunday million ever". I just need to run good one time.

applies cause of the edge youd be giving up by taking the lower variance route. your edge in a really good railheaven game might be 1ptbb or something, whereas here:

(8:18 AM) Ket: dont be peer pressured by the fanboys into trying to be cool, if u wanna at least look at some numbers then do it. your actions in the next hour are going to be life changing. id be looking at numbers at this point unless opponents were fundamentally extremely poor. obviously id be trying to negotiate an unfairly good deal for myself that reflects and maybe even slightly exaggerates my skill edge, and you may have the 'most willing to play it out if they dont accept' card on your side
(8:19 AM) Ket: altho given stacks right now it may be ok just to wait for hu
(8:19 AM) Anders: i guess you are right
(8:19 AM) Anders: but these guys are terrible
(8:19 AM) Anders: and i mean terrible
(8:19 AM) Anders: like
(8:19 AM) Anders: clueless
(8:19 AM) Ket: lolk
(8:19 AM) Ket: if theyre folding too much 3handed then great
(8:19 AM) Ket: glglglgl
(8:19 AM) Anders: they are still playing 15/12 lol
(8:19 AM) Anders: ty
(8:19 AM) Ket: fair enough

sickkkkkkko.gj

Loool, epic rape, very nice to see the best player win it in the end

one more congratz and cant wait to see the REPLAY!!! watching you own them 3handed with trash hands will be orgastic

SICK ! Congratulations SakiSaki. I always believed in you !! Did you buy-in for yourself or do you have to share profits?
Well deserved win for one of the nicest LP members. GJ !

yeah plus good railheaven games run relatively frequently whereas finding yourself shorthanded in the biggest sunday million ever with a bunch of guys making gross mistakes is a once in a lifetime event.

anyways enough hijacking, very very sick. congrats.

sick

pofjasofpidasmdas

sick
gj!

Why would you share the cake when you can have it all for yourself ? Would be dumb to give away $ when he feels like he's the best player at the table. You can still look at numbers and deal something that give you more than 1st place tho, some people are stupid enough to accept like it happened before (2+2 thread not so long ago, the guy actually managed to deal more than 1st place lmao), that would be hilarious.

that is so sick saki, gj man. i watched some of the hu before i went to bed last night great job!!

gratz :D

solid

FUKINHELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GRATZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

ssick so sick.

OMFG greatttttttttttttttt!

congrats nice win

no money was added

it was.
usually it has 1.5mln guaranteed prizepool
this time it was 2.5mln, so 1mln was added to the guaranteed prizepool

obviously the amount of money gathered by the buyin of he players surpassed that value, so it doesn't really matter.

Congratulations sir~
