Records have been invented to be broken.. This is the thought through which PokerStars is heading as it has managed to break one record after another in yesterday’s tournament, which brought together an incredible number of 149.196 poker players from across the world. The war between the two major online poker rooms, Full Tilt and PokerStars, as far as tournaments are concerned began last year when Pokerstars said they would run a tournament with 35,000 entries. Shortly after, Full Tilt run its own tournament with more than 50,000 tournament players; shortly after that Pokerstars broke their own record running a tournament with 65,000 entries.
This previous Sunday, December 27, 2009 PokerStars came to raise their game with 149,196 participants. The buy in to the PokerStars Sunday tournament was $1 and guaranteed a prize of $300,000. This means that it accumulated an overlay of more than $150,000. The tournament was a turbo with the blinds going up every 5 minutes, ensuring that the tournament would end within hours. Things within 6 hours had emerged as “oskar69″ received the winners prize of $50,000.
