PokerStars 16th Anniversary Sunday Million

The iconic PokerStars Sunday Million celebrates its 16th anniversary this March and is doing so with an awe-inspiring $10 million guaranteed prize pool! Those of you entering this historic tournament are in for a real treat if past anniversary editions are anything to go by.

March 20 at 5:05 p.m. GMT is the date and time you want to be logged into your PokerStars account because that is the exact moment the Sunday Million 16th Anniversary event shuffles up and deals. Buying in direct sets you back $215, although there are dozens of freerolls and satellites from only $2.20 feeding into the tournament.

You receive 20,000 chips for your $215 investment and play to blinds starting at 50/100/12a. Those blinds increase every 20-minutes for the first 18 levels before shortening to 15-minutes thereafter.

16th Anniversary Sunday Million Schedule

Day 1 ends after the completion of the 18th level before play resumes at 5:10 p.m. on March 21. Day 2 players battle it out until the end of Level 50. Surviving players return to the action from 5:05 p.m. GMT on March 22 and play down to a champion.

Late registration remains open until the start of Day 2, and you are permitted to purchase up to five re-entries while late registration is open. It is definitely worthwhile attempting to win several seats via the plethora of satellites in the run-up to the 16th Anniversary Sunday Million.

History of the PokerStars Sunday Million Anniversary Events

Past Anniversary Sunday Million Champions

PokerStars has run special edition anniversary editions of the Sunday Million since the tournament’s fifth birthday. Unsurprisingly, all these events have been massive and their champions padded their bankrolls with mega prizes.

Luke "Bdbeatslayer" Vrabel won the fifth anniversary Sunday Million after an unprecedented nine-way chop. Vrabel walked away with $671,094 in cash, a brand new Lamborghini Gallardo, and the victory as part of that deal. This was the last Sunday Million anniversary edition featuring American players because Black Friday happened a month later, changing the online poker landscape as we knew it.

Again, the battle ended in a deal, this time involving two German players. The deal left $160,000 for the eventual champion, and "DrUPSWING" got their hands on this extra cash for a total prize worth $1,038,540) after beating Fabio "hdjgkfgsdl" Sperling heads-up.

The honor of the largest Sunday Million Anniversary event came in 2020 the 14th such tournament.
