The PokerStars Sunday Million 10th Anniversary event comes with a million guarantee.

Introduced in 2006, the PokerStars Sunday Million has grown to become one of the biggest and most anticipated weekly online poker tournaments in the world. For a buy-in of just $215, poker players of any level compete alongside the best minds in the game for a first place prize regularly in excess of $150,000.

With the event’s 10 year anniversary just around the corner, the online poker giant is sweetening this Sunday’s prize pool with a guaranteed $10 million, and promises to make a millionaire out of the winner. To celebrate the milestone event, PokerStars has teamed up with PocketFives and put 10 Sunday Million tickets up for grabs in a satellite available exclusively to members.

The PocketFives Sunday Million Special runs Saturday at 19:30 CET, and with a total buy-in of only $1.10, should be within the reach of nearly all of our readers. You can locate the event in the PokerStars client with tournament ID ‘1503519904’, and enter with password ‘PF89892.’ Once you’ve secured your seat, you’ll be on your way to scoring the $215 entry into the Main Event, where you’ll vie for your share of the $10,000,000 guarantee.

If you’re aren’t lucky enough to win your buy-in through our special satellite, you still have plenty of chances to do so through normal qualifiers offered by PokerStars. Saturday, players who make a $20+ deposit using the bonus code ‘MILLIONFREE6’ will have a chance to win a ticket in a Hyper Turbo freeroll.

Additionally, PokerStars is offering two “Deadline Satellites” on the Sunday. The first satellite comes with a buy-in of $11 and awards 1,000 seats, while the second features a $33 entry and guarantees 333 seats. You can enter the first Deadline Satellite for even less by winning your $11 buy-in through a $1 feeder satellite.

The Sunday Million started out as somewhat of an experiment, and was one of the first online tournaments to offer bigger starting chip stacks and longer levels. The structure was a hit, and the $1 million prize pool attracted nearly 6,000 players to the inaugural tournament. Since then, the Sunday Million has truly become an international event, and now boasts champions from over 75 countries.

While winning the top prize in the Sunday Million is nothing more than a fantasy for most, nine players have achieved the astonishing feat of twice.

PokerStars was also a pioneer in poker education, offering fans a broadcast of final table highlights with players’ hole cards exposed. The innovation continues today with players streaming the tournament on Twitch, giving them the opportunity to explain their moves to viewers.

This Sunday’s eye-popping $10 million guarantee is the second largest in the event’s history. In 2011, PokerStars celebrated the company’s 10th anniversary, with over 62,000 entrants generating a prize pool of $12.4 million. Canada’s ‘First-Eagle’ banked the massive $1.1 million first-place prize.
