KevSteele wins the Sunday Million for the second time in 4 months - Poker News

That's a pretty incredible feat. Has anybody won twice in a short period of time before. This guys Sharkscope graph is like a staircase.

From PokerNews;

To most online poker players, winning any tournament is quite the accomplishment. Winning the PokerStars Sunday Million is a dream. The weekly flagship event routinely draws between 6,000 and 7,000 players, giving each participant roughly a .001 percent chance of making the final table. Even some of the most celebrated online tournament players in the world are still in the hunt for their first Sunday Million title.

UK poker player Kevin "kevsteele" Steele defied the odds. In July, Steele bested a field of more than 6,000 players to win the PokerStars Sunday Million for $128,793. On Sunday, Nov. 6, Steele did it again, weaving his way through a field of nearly 7,000 players to win the tournament for the second time in less than four months.

Yeah, either "a .1 percent chance" or "a .001 chance"... obviously just bitching and not all that upset, but still...
