Sunday Majors 3/28: Anh Van Nguyen Wins on Stars, Racener Makes Big Final Table on Tilt

written by: Jennifer under Poker Comments: Comments Off

It was the last Sunday of March … wait, what? The first quarter of 2011 is almost in the books, and while I ponder what happened to the first three months of the year, let’s get to the details of the big Sunday tournaments. The list now includes the Sunday Storm on PokerStars, which was formerly known as the Sunday 1/4 Million but launched a new name & look with a special $1 million guarantee this week. It was a big deal. And Full Tilt seems to keep upping its big weekly event; what is usually the $750K Guarantee went up to $1 million last week and jumped to $1.5 million this week. That’s kind of a big deal, too. Here’s the breakdown of it all:
