Spirit of giving thrives at PokerStars.com

The Sunday Million at PokerStars.com saw another player take home more than $100,000 in prize money this week, and Santa made a surprise visit to the poker tables to dish out even more extra cash on the site.

The final table was filled with players from the United States except for one from Sweden and another from Monaco. U.S. player Bhoth defeated them all to win $119,350 on Sunday.

When the table of nine made it to the final six, though, they proved that the holiday spirit is alive and well. They decided to chop the pot with most everybody getting near-equal shares and leaving $30,000 extra for the winner.

The final table results were as follows:

Place Name Prize
1st Bhoth $119,350
2nd FrankTheT@nk $66,334
3rd themerkman $51,163
4th omba $49,133
5th Rags2Racks $52,943
6th poofter $60,377
7th RebelYell7 $20,600
8th beauW $15,100
9th amils1 $10,000

Bhoth wasn't the only one to have Christmas come a day early either. Santa made several surprise appearances at tables all over the poker site Sunday night doling out cash gifts wherever he went.

According to the PokerStars.com blog, Santa Claus gave out thousands of dollars throughout the night.
