Another Sunday is in the books, and a juggernaut has emerged in the online poker scene, with his fourth major win in under a month. Before we get to that, let’s start off with the biggest weekly online tournament – The Poker Stars Sunday Million.
The Sunday Million table was far from weak, with two interesting names showing up at the final table. Nofingclue11 has been on a tear this year, showing up at big final tables all over the place. However, the second name at the final table was especially interesting. Andy McLEOD has been gone for quite some time due to being underage. However, yesterday he turned 18, and celebrated doing so by taking 4th in the Sunday Million for $75,879, while nofingclue11 finished right behind him in 5th, for $59k. The two pros weren’t able to outlast Fred_Brink, as he won it all for $204,199.

Mark “dipthrong/SHIPP ITT” Herm has been on an unbelievable tear in the last month, with wins in the Bodog 100k, Full Tilt Sunday Mulligan, and Full Tilt 750k. He started the carnage on July 6th, and continued it yesterday by taking down the $500 250k on Poker Stars. In doing so, he had to outlast a tough final table that included ender555 and AK87, as well as SAM66 who took down the Sunday Million two weeks ago. Mark, ender, and AK87 made a chop three handed that locked up over $61k for each of the remaining players.
