PokerStars has reduced the $215 buy-in Sunday Million to $109 in a bid to attract more players, and Parker “tonkaaaa” Talbot chops the final $215 buy-in event for the most significant score of his career.

Seth Godin teaches that marketing changes your pricing, and pricing changes your marketing.
Back in 2006, when PokerStars created their flagship $215 buy-in, $1m guaranteed Sunday Million tournament the poker landscape was very different.
