This week 8,236 players turned out for the Sunday Million, boosting the guarantee to $1,647,200. That money was spread to the top 1,260 players, with ziggy47 from the United States getting the biggest share after posting the win.
It took nine hours of play to get down to the final table, and after working through the other competitors it came down to ziggy47 against puntnko in heads-up play.
The two were nearly even in chips and decided to chop the remaining prize pool almost down the middle. Holding a slight edge in chips, ziggy47 took $152,438, and puntnko collected $151,283, leaving $30,000 to play for.
On the final hand, ziggy47 raised from the button and puntnko reraised with #Ad#9h. ziggy47 came over the top of him with an all-in and puntnko called to see ziggy47 table #Ac#Js.
When the board ran out #8c#Ah#2d#7c#5h, ziggy47 pocketed the final $30,000 and added a Sunday Million win to his record.
