PA SUNDAY MAJORS: Record-Setting Sunday Special Chopped Three Ways

With many Americans practicing social distancing and doing their best part to stay inside, the online poker tournaments on PokerStars PA were packed Sunday with a number of records falling.
The $100 Sunday Special drew a whopping 1,149 runners to create the first six-figure prize pool in the history of the event. With over $37,000 left to play for, the final three players came to terms on an event chop. ‘Pocketaces500‘, ‘ALmerle‘, and ‘munson42082‘ all walked away with $12,426.14.
