Poker pro Shannon Shorr highlighted a busy Sunday of online poker tournaments by winning the elite PokerStars 500 yesterday.

While the Sunday Million and Sunday Warm-Up tend to offer bigger prize pools, the Sunday 500 is arguably an even tougher test of skill as the field is largely professional players.

Although Shorr has made some notable scores in FTOPS on Full Tilt, it was his biggest cash on PokerStars.

Check out highlights from the Sunday 500, Million and Warm-Up below:
