This past Sunday, partypoker's servers crashed at exactly the worst time - dead in the middle of their big Sunday tournaments.

partypoker has been gaining precious momentum as of late, and this past weekend's downtime certainly hurt the company, at least over the short-term. Many players were left frustrated, especially those who were making deep runs in big tournaments.

In an effort to apologize for the server downtime, partypoker announced earlier this week that they will be increasing the guarantees for some of their biggest Sunday tournaments by almost $2 million.

The biggest beneficiary of these increased guarantees, at least in terms of total dollars added to the prize pool, will be those with bigger bankrolls. There is a new event taking place on Sunday called the Super Sunday Big Bounty Hunter SHR event, which will have a buy-in of $5,200 and a guaranteed prize pool of $1 million.

The $215 buy-in Super Sunday Big Bounty Hunter H event, on the other hand, will see its guarantee increase from $200,000 all the way up to $1,000,000.

Other beneficiaries of the increased guarantees include:

Super Sunday Big Bounty Hunter M, $100,000 added to guarantee
Super Sunday Big Bounty Hunter L, $30,000 added to guarantee
Super Sunday Big Bounty Hunter Mi, $15,000 added to guarantee
Ladies Bounty Hunter H, $5,000 added to guarantee
Ladies Bounty Hunter M, $3,000 added to guarantee
