8,118 players drove the prize pool up to an impressive $1,623,600 at the Poker Stars Sunday Million on March 8, 2009. Two bust outs occurred on the bubble so only eight players made the final table. One of these was Chad “Confused1” Berthelson.
Sitting with the short stack was Jon “apestyles” Van Fleet. However, the online rounder was able to outlast three of his opponents en route to a fifth place finish and $57,637.80.
The remaining four players struck a deal assuring each a six-figure payday. TheGoingRate, however, emerged victorious and claimed the additional $30,000 that was reserved for the winner.
Here are the final results:
1) TheGoingRate - $132,801.79 2) steakstud - $127,661.43 3) Kürschner- $132,955.39 4) kuzman89 - $105,097.14 5) apestyles - $57,637.80 6) ferminaitor - $41,401.80 7) George2Loose - $28,413 8) 1stAir - $18,671.40 9) Confused1- $11,365.30
