sw6977 (redwood valley) takes home the worst performance in the tournament. Finishing dead last and wasting $215 in near record time. Congrats, maybe try a different hobby.

Poker Stars Sunday Millions Bubble

Mylo (Carmel Valley) just missed the money finishing in 487th place and being the bubble boy in the tournament… $604 would have been nice…

The biggest loser of the tournament is Kalidh (Vastervik) who did a great job of being the first player out in the tournament. He got 3021 place and a spot on our blog post…I probably spent more time writing this blog post then him in the tournament. Congrats!
