The Sunday Briefing: Eric "Uniceja" Brenes Part of Five-Way Chop in PokerStars Sunday Million
It's not often you can get five people to agree on anything, but that's what happened Sunday in the Sunday Million on PokerStars . The final five players agreed to a deal which saw each of them secure at least $95,000, with four pocketing a six-figure payday.
U_2GOOD4_M3 received the biggest share of the prize pool ($121,407) before bowing out in fourth place. Eric "Uniceja" Brenes , the nephew of Humberto Brenes , eventually finished second for $121,407. He lost heads-up to "mastervp888" who collected $119,694 for the win.
Others earning big paydays on Sunday were Jason "jdtjpoker" Wheeler , Marty "TheLipoFund" Mathis , and Chris "Big Huni" Hunichen , who took down The Sunday Major at Full Tilt .
