That is now two millionaires in just a couple of weeks,it would be pretty damn amazing to get a pop up saying you are now a millionaire.Your whole completely changed in a matter of minutes. I wonder if he actually tried to win the tournament he was playing or if his mind was just a mess trying to comprehend his new situation.

Congratulations for the guy. This is a huge promotion by pokerstars not only for call new players to the spin&go, but also to the poker or their software. For this two guys is a huge life change, but for get hands on the money, becaue is a huge amount, they maybe will do a small cashouts for the next months, but in that next months work or do a jog beside poker or nothing maybe is in their minds. For the guy that is making a show on the internet is was the timming.

....... And we have another winner!!!!!!!!! Isn't it fantastic how ordinary people can win such huge amounts of money for such a small investment in such a short period of time. Can you imagine the icon flashing up that your table was playing for a million? That would be enough in itself, but then to win...WOW!

You have to be a very lucky guy just to spin the 1million since there are 3 X 1 millions given by 10millions entrants. Then after you have to beat the 2 other players yes he deserve a lot of congratulations. Now who is making the more money on this 10 millions X $5.000= 50 millions and pokerstars is keeping 7% rake which is 3.5 millions. Its a very good promo for both winners players and pokerstars.
