Default PokerStars ups its payouts...

Did anyone notice that PS upped its payouts on the sunday final freeroll to $500 prize pool? Its about time. Its hard enough to qualify for the sun. final, often facing 6000 people just to qualify and then another 500 plus to get money. Hats off to PS..

yes it is good that ps upped the sunday final payout. i made it to the final a few times, and its hard making it to the money with only nine places paid.

for getting through 5991 people to get a seat to it, you should have a heck higher pool in what stars rakes and what others sites freerolls offer. Stars is way far below the norm.

But they do have many many more tournaments as well.

I found out about it a couple weeks before it happened but was keeping to myself, guess the secrets out lol. I won an entry to 1 a little while ago and saved the "chip". Now I'm glad I did, its worth more now

yeah I know, I'm qualified for the money game twice, which I logged in a total of 9 plus hours. then only to get a chance of one out of 250 plus to win part of a 100 dollar prize pool was just some bull. Even with it going up to 500, still not really worth the effort to take any real money, I only play in thier freerolls for the pratice, which really isn't any good til you get down to the final 500 or so.
