Sundays are supersized at the world's second largest real-money online poker network 888poker due to many events featuring larger guarantees and other special tournaments added to the schedule. On alternating Sundays, the Whale with a $600 buy-in and the Baby Whale with a $320 buy-in are among the two biggest tournaments, especially in terms of buy-in.

The Whale took place three times in October and another two times in November. The five big winners were Steven "poker_mom74" Chew (Oct. 2 - $30,157), "dulek_jason" (Oct. 16 - $32,814), "PreyOnDaLine" (Oct. 30 - $31,774), "Kannwas" (Nov. 13 - $28,077) and "svenskeren14" (Nov. 27 - $31,543).
