For anyone who loves making instant cash, as do most readers of Gambling911.com we suspect, Americas Cardroom Million Dollar Sunday is expected to feature a massive overlay. Americas Cardroom is part of the Winning Poker Network.  Oh and even more reason to play: Doyle Brunson has just confirmed he will be playing in this massive event.

ALERT: 50 seat GTD Sunday at 12pm EST

Essentially the site is guaranteeing $1 million in prize money but the number of folks participating has not hit the anticipated target, meaning if you participate in Million Dollar Sunday your chances of cashing are pretty substantial.

$540 buy-in no-limit Texas Holdem tournament guarantees the first place winner will bring home a life-changing $200,000.00!!!  The top 9 finishers will receive one free bank wire and players throughout North and South America are welcome (as are those throughout the rest of the world).  This is being billed as the biggest online poker tournament of its kind catering to the Americas in more than 3 ½ years when only PokerStars and Full Tilt offered these types of tournaments.

These types of tournaments are extremely rare online. 

Part of the reason for the low turnout involves connectivity issues in recent weeks that have affected the online poker community across the board. An Americas Cardroom representative acknowledged they and other sites have been the target of a Denial of Service (DoS) attack.

Dear Valued Player,
For several weeks now online poker sites across multiple networks have experienced disconnections and disruptions.
Within the last few days, Americas Cardroom has been experiencing some technical difficulties due to deliberate disconnections produced by an unknown source. As a result, no internet service providers have been able to maintain stable connections, thus causing disruptions to some game sessions.
Resolving these issues is our No. 1 priority to assure you a stable and reliable environment. Please note that we are working non-stop to make sure these interruptions come to an end.
In addition to major connectivity improvements, we have enabled a new feature that allows us to pause a tournament as soon as a high level network disruption is detected. During this pause our tournament staff will communicate with players via table messages. Once the network goes back to its normal behavior we will resume all tournaments.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
Thank you for your patience and understanding,
The Team at Americas Cardroom

The tournament kicks off Sunday December 14 at 3 pm EST here.
