The Women's Sunday tournament is a special weekly event that offers the women of PokerStars a chance at a larger-than-usual guarantee. But the Women's Sunday is one part of a larger community that includes many more opportunities for female poker players to compete in a friendly environment and enjoy the game as they become better players. PokerStars Women has a number of promotions, including the Women's Poker League, which offers the chance to compete at the $.10 level or the $1.10 level. Top points earners each month win cash, and everyone works toward an annual league ranking to win even more cash and prizes. The community continues to grow, with Facebook pages - PS Women and Women's Poker League - and a Twitter feed that provide information about women in poker, opportunities to win points and tournament seats, and a way to form friendships with other women in the game. We also hope you'll let us know what we can do to make your PokerStars experience better over time! For now, let's get to the task at hand. It was the Women's Sunday of June 19 with a $7K guarantee, and the final numbers after an extra hour of registration were: Total players: 188 Among the many players vying for this week's title was one Team PokerStars Pro, Holland's own Fatima Moreira de Melo. She started strong and maintained position in the top half of the field, but just after the first hour of play completed, she found herself out in 109th place. The player who eliminated her walked away with an extra $50.
Teresita82 of Spain, who finished ninth at the May 8 Women's Sunday final table, finally achieved victory and took home $2,021.00 for it. Congratulations! Women's Sunday Results for 06/19/11: 1st place: Teresita82 ($2,021.00)
