From $11 Satellite to $1.1m; "AAAArthur" Wins 14th Anniversary Sunday Million

They say deuces never loses, and that certainly proved to be the case for "AAAArthur" who won the PokerStars 14th Anniversary Sunday Million with that exact hand. The Brazilian flopped a full house, cracking the pocket fives of runner up Stefan "CrAzY_sTeFaN" Piele Dragos to emerge triumphant over a field of 93,016 players.

A four-way deal had already guaranteed "AAAArthur" would be the only player to walk away with a seven-figure score, a fact made all the more extraordinary by the fact that his previous biggest cash was $90 and that the Brazilian satellited into the Sunday Million for just $11.
