With the Final Table Series and National Poker Series charging along at full speed, the MTT crowd is spoilt for choice! Tuesday pretty much witnessed a similar display of fiery action as the last few days.

While the two flagship stops have kept the regs more than busy, PokerStars India`s MicroMillions series returned for its fourth edition yesterday, much to the delight of the micro-stakes players!

Harsh Karanpuria was hands down the MVP of the day. Karanpuria made two top finishes; the more prominent of them was his victory run in Spartan Poker`s FTS #20 – Challenger for ₹6.56 Lakhs. He chopped the title three-way with Vishal Kumar (2nd for ₹5.09 Lakhs) and ‘jayvee’ (3rd for ₹4.49 Lakhs).

Dhiraj Lakhotia topped the Tuesday charts on PokerBaazi with a victory lap in the primetime NPS#14 Tuesday Tee-Off. The ENDBOSS 2021 runner-up finisher won his first NPS gold medal in the event and ₹6.05 Lakhs in prize money, with Gautam Kaul settling for the silver and a ₹4.24 Lakhs cash prize in second place.

Ankit Bajaj was another first-time NPS gold medal winner and got his hands on the prize after winning the NPS #15 Deepdive for ₹3.46 Lakhs. Sahil Mahboobani finished runner-up for 2.42 Lakhs.

PokerGuru Ambassador Ashish Ahuja added a second FTS Medallion to his collection last night by winning FTS #21 on Spartan Poker for ₹2.92 Lakhs. He chopped the title heads-up with ’ALWAYWINN’ (2nd for ₹2.40 Lakhs).
