PokerStarsTo think, it is still called the Sunday Million. But PokerStars has proven that when it wants to, it can jack up a prize pool like no other site can.

In celebration of the 40th billion hand dealt on the site, PokerStars is offering a guaranteed $1 million payout to the first-place finisher in this weekend’s Sunday Million, and a $4 million-guaranteed prize pool total. It will easily be the biggest prize pool and first place prize in the history of the site’s flagship event.

The tournament will start at 4:30 p.m. ET, Feb. 21. As usual, the event will have a $215 buy-in. Satellites for the historic tourney are running up until cards are dealt.

The special Sunday Million guarantee has just been the tip of the iceberg when it comes to PokerStars prizes for its major milestone. The site has been giving away free money every millionth hand on their cash game tables — starting with hand 39,601,000,000 and ending with hand 40,000,000,000.

PokerStars also held a special $40 tournament last weekend with an incredible $1 million prize pool.
