For $2.20 or even a handful full of frequent player points any player can satellite their way into the biggest Sunday tourney currently running on the internet. The pokerstars Sunday Million Guarantee usually attracts 6,000 players each anteing up $216 for a shot at a six figure payday.

I've tried many times to get into the frenzy for cheap but haven't found the right stuff to sit myself down for the nasty eight to ten hour trip to the final table.

This week's tourney was special as Pokerstars tossed in an extra $500,000 into the guarantee for marking the one-year anniversary of the tournament's start. But, it wasn't neccessary as 10,500 players smashed the minimum and allowed five players to walk away with a $100,000 prize.

Here's the recap from Brad "Otis" Willis:

By the time registration closed at 4:30pm ET on Sunday, more than 10,500 people had signed up to compete in the biggest (in terms of the number of participants) real money poker tournament in history. The prize pool was a massive $2,101,600. More than 1,300 people stood to walk away with at least some cash. First prize rested at an amazing $271,106.

Over the course of the night, I kept tabs on the tournament. It seemed like every time I browsed through the top 50 players, I kept seeing the name "Zeddor." So, it was little surprise to find the same player sitting at the final table. Like most of the Sunday Million final nine, the Anniversary event was an international one, this time featuring players from Denmark, the U.K., and the United States.

Of all the stories that could've come out of the final table, gambforlife likely had the most interesting (and most pressing). He revealed that within a few hours of standing up from his computer, his was taking his wife to the hospital to have a baby boy. No doubt, whatever he won at the final table was going to help with what every parent knows are insane diaper bills.

Over the course of the next couple of hours, the players battled down to the final five. Those players, seemingly quite aware of the huge amount of money at stake, decided to cut a deal and lock up their profits. Every one of the final five nailed down six-figure paydays.

And, again, no surprise...Zeddor ended up taking first place.
