Poker Stars’ Sunday Million is getting ready for it’s big sixth birthday celebrations

Poker Stars’ Sunday Million will turn six this year, and to celebrate their sixth birthday, on March 11th, Poker Stars are going to be offering six million dollars for a special edition of the Sunday Million that day.

According to casino gambling news from the Poker Stars Blog, they are offering $6,000,000 guaranteed, with at least one winner picking up a financially fantastic one million dollars at the Sunday Million event, in the middle of next month.

The cost of entry into the March 11th celebrations is the usual Sunday Million fee of $215. But if your finances aren’t as strong as that and if you still wish to play, there is a $1 satellite route that gamers can play through too.

The sixth birthday celebrations at the online poker site, are due to kick off at roughly 14.30 Eastern time. All satellites and feeder routes will be run prior to that, starting at just a dollar, and to get involved you’ll need to visit Poker Star and sign up through the lobby and tournament specials tabs.

Since it’s creation back in 2006, the Sunday Million has seen over two hundred and seventy five tournaments, has had over two million players participate, and has coughed up nearly four hundred and fifty million dollars in prize pools, during its short life.

The tournament has already got some of Poker Stars’ Pro Team excited, and you can guarantee that come March 11th they’ll be there, and in with a shout to win that $1 million guaranteed first prize. Betrand, ‘Elky’ Grospellier, one of the Team Poker Stars Pro’s had the following fond memories to mention, about the Sunday Million:

“My favourite memory of the big Sunday tournament on Poker Stars is the time I finished 12th. This was my first really deep run in a tournament of this size, and I was so excited. There is a huge Sunday Million on March 11, with $1M guaranteed for first. It may not feel the same for me as the first time I went deep, but I’ll be trying just as hard. See you there.”

One of Poker Stars leading ladies also commented about the event, on the official Poker Stars blog. Liv Boeree had the following to say: “When playing the Sunday Million, it’s important to be patient. It attracts huge numbers, and in order to navigate your way through, you have to learn to play the waiting game if the cards don’t cooperate.”

Whoever wins the jackpot, everyone is destined to have a good night on March 11th, so if you fancy a shot at a guaranteed one million dollars, get into the running soon. Perhaps it won’t only be the Sunday Million’s who’ll be celebrating next month?
