Pokerno says yes to PokerStars.com Sunday Million pot split

The final four players in the Dec. 17 PokerStars.com Sunday Million divvied up the pot according to their chips, but pokerno saw the most cash after winning the remaining $30,000 in prize money.

Rumblings of a deal began when the final table was whittled down to five players. After knocking out the fifth competitor, Vinny88, the four remaining players talked shop.

They agreed to a by-the-chips split of the pot, with two of the players adding $5,000 to top up jkopp984's stack. That left $30,000 up for grabs.

After bonvivant and janwillem111 were sent packing, pokerno and jkopp984 met for heads-up action for the remaining $30,000 in prize money. At that point pokerno held a substantial chip lead, and almost immediately took jkopp984 out with an ace high.

The final table results are as follows:

Place Name Country Prize
1st pokerno Finland $124,276
2nd jkopp984 United States $70,074
