We’re coming out of an action-packed weekend where Delhi-based Jitendra Gadhwal emerged as the new EndBoss taking down the ₹5 Crore GTD event for a whopping ₹1 Crore. The IPC Megastacks culminated at Jhapa, Nepal, with Young Gun Siddhanth Kripalani riding his stack to victory in the ₹60K Main Event. Kripalani pocketed a career-best live score of ₹39.72 Lakhs after striking a head-up deal with India’s first WSOP bracelet winner, Aditya Sushant, securing ₹33.50 Lakhs for his runner-up finish.
