After two months of non-stop high adrenaline action, first across the IOPC and then APT Online India and the WPT Online India stops, yesterday brought players a well-deserved break.

That said, the WPTOI excitement is not yet over. The tournaments are done with, but Adda52 was scheduled to run the final chapter of the series – the ₹7 Lakhs GTD WPT Winners SNG and the ₹3 Lakhs GTD WPT Bubble SNG yesterday. However, both SNGs have been moved to today.

Headlining the Monday winners was the former Maverick champion Debapriya Manna who bested a 389-strong field to win Adda52’s Iron Man for ₹1.98 Lakhs. Juli Kumari came second for ₹1.20 Lakhs. She also won the Sundown Adda for ₹18,036, collectively earning 1.45 Lakhs.

Faiz Alam cashed in all the flagship offerings and most prominently won PokerBaazi’s The Big Show for ₹1.46 Lakhs after striking a three-way deal with ‘Instamuck’ (2nd for ₹1.09 Lakhs) and ‘slyblazer’ (3rd for ₹1 Lakh).

Sushil Kumar dominated the show on Spartan Poker, where he championed the ReCharge for ₹1.41 Lakhs – his second time winning the event. Kumar struck a three-way deal with Siddhanth Kapoor (2nd for ₹1.12 Lakhs) and ‘royalflush84’ (3rd for ₹1.12 Lakhs).

Sreeharsha Boneni came out trumps in PokerStars India Battle Royale, winning the event for the third time last night for ₹1.29 Lakhs after defeating poker streamer Shivam Jain (2nd for ₹60,597) heads-up.

Prateek Ajmani won the Daily SPRINT on PokerBaazi for ₹1.08 Lakhs, with the long-time circuit regular and poker coach Kanishka Samant taking second place for ₹96,630.

Young Gun Karan Radia took down the Voyager for ₹95,500, with ‘Adit8783’ placing runner-up for ₹57,873.

Rising Star Aman Parakh shipped two late-night marquees. He took down PokerBaazi’s Daily Night SPRINT for ₹48,000, also winning the Adda52-hosted Nighttide DST Adda for ₹34,191. Like Alam, he scored in most of the Monday flagships, raking in ₹1.14 Lakhs cumulatively to storm his way past the ₹3 Crore mark in online winnings.

Clinton Tavares, Devinder Bahia, Vikram Pratapdan Langa & Abhishek Sonu won the other Monday marquees.

Here are the Monday highlights!

 

Spartan Poker

Spearheading the Monday action on Spartan Poker was the ₹8 Lakhs GTD ReCharge. The ₹2,200 entry buy-in event attracted 423 entrants, and the top 39 places got a share from the ₹8.46 Lakhs prize pool. A three-way deal saw the former Sunday Superstack fifth-place finisher Sushil ‘lex_veldi82’ Kumar taking down the ReCharge title for the second time last night for ₹1.41 Lakhs. Actor, DJ, and poker player Siddhanth ‘Liu Kang’ Kapoor (2nd for ₹1.12 Lakhs) and ‘royalflush84’ (3rd for ₹1.12 Lakhs) were the other beneficiaries of the deal.

Adda52

The ₹25 Crores GTD WPT Online India (WPTOI) kept MTT players on edge all through August, and we were expecting the series to wrap up on Monday with the two scheduled SNGs – the ₹7 Lakhs GTD WPT Winners SNG and the ₹3 Lakhs GTD WPT Bubble SNG. However, both the SNGs have been rescheduled to today and will take place from 7.30 PM.

Instead, the site`s ₹8 Lakhs GTD Iron Man was the biggest draw on Monday. The event wrangled in 389 players, filling in ₹22,000 in overlays. The final 43 players got paid, and walking away with the title was the former Maverick champion Debapriya debapriya_12345’ Manna, who bagged his third career title for ₹1.98 Lakhs. Former Adda52 Big Game finalist Juli ‘Lily8’ Kumari stood second for ₹1.20 Lakhs.
