Andre Akkari flexes poker muscles at PokerStars

By Sarah Polson

There's always something interesting going on at PokerStars on Sundays as the poker site hosts its major weekly tournaments.

This week the news is that Andre Akkari managed to make three final tables in tournaments, including two of the regular big Sunday events. He made the final table of the $200+$15 Fixed-Limit Omaha Hi/Lo tournament on Saturday plus the Second Chance and the $215+R No-Limit Hold'em tournaments.

While Akkari accumulated more than $30,000 through three final tables, the big winner of the day was Kongsgaard, who picked up more than $150,000 for winning the PokerStars Sunday Million.

The results of Sunday's events are as follows:
