PokerStars Sunday Million Poker Tournament had 7,415 players enter which put the site short of the $1.5 million guarantee. PokerStars had to add $17,000 to the prize pool to create the massive guarantee.

During final table play, several tried to cut a deal with the others. It began when four players were left and then discussed again with just three players. It was not until heads up play began that a deal would be made.

Darkillermax and salvo58 were entering into heads up play with darkillermax in the chip lead. The two agreed that darkillermax would take almost $145,000 and salvo58 would take almost $135,000. The winner would win an extra $30,000.

So after the deal was made play would begin. Darkillermax was able to hold on to the chip lead and take out salvo58 and win the remaining $30,000. The amount divided was according to PokerStars chopping rules.
