The Online Poker Weekend Dominated by PokerStars’ Double Vision

PokerStars’ Double Vision Sunday – an extremely popular weekend majors-related promotion, which runs two Sunday Millions and two Sunday Warm-Ups instead of one of each – returned to the biggest online poker room this Sunday, to the delight of the masses.
The two above said weekend majors thus doled out more than $4 million in guaranteed prizes, on top of the other tournament opportunities of course.
The biggest winner of the weekend was a notable this time: Stefan Jedlicka pocketed a profit of $222.9k, winning one of the Sunday Millions. The win represented a nice rebound for the Austrian poker pro, who had finished runner up in the Sunday Million a few weeks ago. That time around, he struck a deal, but this time he went for all the marbles and he didn’t grow to regret his move.
The one he defeated heads-up was a player known as “Doomy”, who was rewarded with $164k.
The same tournament created another 6-figure winner too: third-place man MagicMan254 walked away with $118.8k.
The second Sunday Million was a tad poorer. There were no deals in that event either, but the winner, a player known by the online moniker “Van Razor”, “only” pocketed $177.2k.
There were only two 6-figure finishers in this event, including the winner. The runner-up was “PIPI tapis!”,whose prize was $132k.
The first one of the two Sunday Warm-Ups created a 6-figure winner as well. “newArt!st” walked away with the top prize from this one, pocketing $116.4k for his efforts.
The tournament action was hot at
PartyPoker too. The $200k guaranteed was won by a player known by the moniker “MexicanBeech”, who walked away from the virtual tables with $45.5k. A total of 1,119 players put up the buy-in in this event, creating a prize-pool of $233.8k.
The 50k guaranteed was won by MikeyCasino, who pocketed a little over $8k.
Sign up to PartyPoker and play in their weekend majors. Although not as big as PokerStars’, these tournaments offer plenty of excellent value.
