Poker royalty Aniket ‘Anteman’ Waghmare continues to rewrite the record books! This decorated champion, known for his triple The Millionaire titles, The MoneyMaker 51.0 victory, and last month’s Mega Millions triumph, etched another flagship victory into his poker legacy last night.

Hot on the heels of his third-place finish in last week’s #1 The MoneyMaker, the IOPC Mastermind shattered the competition in Spartan Poker’s ₹12 Lakhs GTD Tuesday Smash. Facing a field of 260 skilled players (124 unique), he unleashed a 7.5-hour storm of calculated aggression and strategic brilliance in the 8 PM Ultimate Poker League flagship, clinching the champion`s title and adding a massive ₹2.79 Lakhs to his bankroll.

But Waghmare’s hunger for victory wasn’t satisfied. He made the money line in another two events, boosting his Tuesday haul to a striking ₹2.98 Lakhs! This relentless run pushes his tracked online earnings ever closer to the mind-boggling ₹9 Crores mark!

> 1st in Spartan Poker’s Tuesday Smash for ₹2,79,000

> 266th in PokerBaazi’s #9 The MoneyMaker for ₹10,000

Waghmare’s path to victory was paved with the crushed hopes of other poker titans. Mithun ‘4cut Atmaram’ Mahesh (opted out of our tracking), a renowned poker coach with a recent India Turbo Masters Main Event third-place finish under his belt, fought valiantly but ultimately settled for a runner-up finish and a substantial ₹1.89 Lakhs payday.

The Tuesday Smash final table was a true spectacle of poker prowess! Alongside Waghmare, and Mahesh, heavyweights like the 2023 POY #4 Ashish ‘0mg_spew’ Munot (3rd for ₹1.26 Lakhs), last night`s The Endeavour finalist Sagar ‘JugaduNash’ Raj (4th for ₹1.03 Lakhs), Dhaval ‘mahakal07’ Solanki (5th for ₹82,800), Siddharth ‘SIDDO19’ Pandey (6th for ₹64,200) and the ever-dangerous Young Gun Arsh ‘BigggTymeR’ Grover (8th for ₹34,920) put their reputations on the line.

Despite the stiff competition, the ₹4,600 buy-in Tuesday Smash fell short of its advertised guarantee by ₹1.60 Lakhs. However, the ₹12 Lakhs GTD prize pool rewarded the top 23 finishers with added value from this lucrative pot.
