Thursday unfolded high-octane action with Spartan Poker’s IOPC series setting the stage for a blockbuster weekend! PokerBaazi’s IMPS, PokerStars India`s Micro Millions, and Adda52’s APF series kept the tournament players busy. Let’s take a quick look into the day’s flagship events and the biggest winners!

 

Spartan Poker

It’s been over a week since the start of Spartan Poker’s IOPC series that’s running with a never-seen-before ₹25 Crores in prize pool guarantees. Thursday was an important milestone since it featured the series’ first High Roller – the ₹55,000 buy-in ₹1 Crore GTD IOPC #54 High Roller. Aptly slotted at the primetime at 9 PM, the High Roller mustered 233 entries to stride past its listed guarantee and collect a ₹1.11 Crore prize pool. The final table lineup read like the who`s who of the circuit. Still, walking away with the top honors was well-known reg, Raghav ‘thatssosick’ Bansal.

One of the most talented players on the circuit, Bansal, has an online scorecard equally dotted with accolades as his live scores repertoire. He had back in April, won the Elite on consecutive weeks. Yesterday, he defeated the co-founder and CEO of PSL, Pranav ‘Boller’ Bagai (runner-up for ₹16.66 Lakhs) heads-up to collect ₹24.69 Lakhs. The victory brought the Kolkata-born pro his career-best online score, taking his lifetime online winnings to ₹2.51 Crores.

For PokerStars India Team Pro and India’s poker veteran Aditya ‘yennefer’ Agarwal finished 3rd for ₹11.47 Lakhs. Arjunn ‘SirMucksALot’ Agrawal (4th for ₹9.35 Lakhs),

Bhavye ‘noobpro’ Mittal (5th for ₹7.45 Lakhs), Anant ‘Pro’ Purohit (6th for ₹5.73 Lakhs), former Millionaire champion Arjun ‘lol this guy’ Pasricha (7th for ₹4.17 Lakhs), and Sriharsha ‘Potato Player’ Doddapaneni (8th for ₹3.02 Lakhs) were the other top regs who FT-ed the tourney!

Incidentally, Doddapaneni also final tabled the Adda52-hosted Godfather, where he finished eighth for ₹61,200.

The moderately priced 8 PM tourney, the ₹40 Lakhs GTD IOPC #53 Ultron, sported a ₹4,400 buy-in. It was Kunal ‘TiltAtma’ Patni who walked away with the title.

Patni, who had parted ways with Adda52 in April, has been consistently raking in six-figure scores this year. Last month he finished runner-up in Adda52’s Full House Finale for ₹12.63 Lakhs. While that remains his second-best online score to-date, the banker-turned-poker pro plowed his way across the Ultron’s 1,153-entry field last night, also beating his heads-up rival ‘Tiger10’ (2nd for ₹5.30 Lakhs) to win ₹8.71 Lakhs.Patni final tabled the ₹10 Lakhs GTD Destiny IOPC Edition as well, finished ninth for ₹22,952. We’re just mid-way through the month, but the win has already catapulted Patni into the top 10 online scorers of July!

The Ultron collected a ₹46.12 Lakhs prize pool and Spartan Poker Pro Nikita ‘Nikita Luther’ Luther (3rd for ₹3.76 Lakhs), and Goonjan ‘gmtesting’ Mall (4th for ₹2.84 Lakhs) were the other prominent FT finishers.

Like the High Roller and the Ultron, the four other IOPC tourneys on Thursday, all shattered their guarantees.

Topping the 601-player field in the IOPC #55 ₹15 Lakhs GTD was the Game Changer runner-up Shardul ‘Faucet Failure’ Parthasarathi. The 28-year-old poker talent added ₹3.28 Lakhs to his bankroll after beating the likes of Sanat ‘avneed’ Mehrotra (runner-up for ₹2.42 Lakhs), Amit ‘Immortal Killer’ Sur (4th for ₹1.29 Lakhs), Srihari ‘bangbang99’ Bang (5th for ₹1.02 Lakhs), and Young Gun`s Kanchan ‘Bubblegum’ Sharma (6th for ₹78,971) and Anmol ‘Anzzzzz’ Mehta (7th for ₹58,777) to the finish line.

Mayank ‘666617’ Makhija (IOPC #56 Destiny IOPC Edition ₹10 Lakhs GTD for ₹3.14 Lakhs), ‘Conman’ (IOPC #50 ₹6 Lakhs GTD for ₹1.34 Lakhs) and Bhanu ‘spectre’ Prakash (IOPC #51 Monster Stack ₹5 Lakhs GTD for ₹1.15 Lakhs) were the other big winners on the site.

Prakash, for that matter, also placed seventh in the IOPC #60 for ₹23,049.

 

PokerBaazi

PokerBaazi’s Thursday flagship ₹20 Lakhs GTD The Summit began at 8 PM, taking over seven hours to play down to a winner. A day after he captured the Destiny IOPC Edition title on Spartan Poker, Anirudh ‘flash1’ Reddy rode past 281 entries in The Summit denying former MoneyMaker champion Shagun ‘sogani22’ Jain (runner-up for ₹3.27 Lakhs) the title. Reddy pocketed ₹4.66 Lakhs for the win.

This was the headline tourney yesterday and smashed its guarantee by generating ₹21.08 Lakhs in the prize pool.

Sporting a 2,750 buy-in, the ₹5 Lakhs GTD Thursday Monsterstack couldn’t generate the same interest as The Summit. Only 184 entries signed up to play the tournament that suffered an overlay of ₹40,000. After posting an eighth-place finish worth ₹62,170 at The Summit, it was one of our former Young Gun`s Shravan ‘FishStars’ Chhabria, who made his way to the top for ₹1.24 Lakhs after defeating Dinesh htc70209’ Kukreja (runner-up for ₹87,150) heads-up.

 

Adda52

Thursday evenings on Adda52 are incomplete without the site`s marquee Godfather, and the event returned with a ₹30 lakhs GTD yesterday. With 612 entries, the tourney piled in a prize pool worth ₹30.60 Lakhs. The field whittled down to a heads-up between PokerGuru Ambassador Arjanveer Singh ‘arjan30’ and Sanket ‘blackcod’ Arora.

Arora, who had collected a personal-best ₹11.84 Lakhs on February 10 after placing fourth in IOPC #98 The Millionaire Main Event, defeated Chadha to win the title and ₹7.19 Lakhs. Chadha had in the last week of June taken up the #3 spot on our yearly rankings. He pocketed a runner-up payday worth ₹4.19 Lakhs.

Hot on the heels of the just-concluded AOPS edition comes the Adda52 Poker Fest (APF) that has 78 tourneys on the schedule. The headline ₹1 Crore GTD APF Full House commenced proceedings yesterday with Day 1A logging in 222 entries. Only 24 players survived the day`s onslaught, and leading the charge was ‘HIMKIR69’ (320,077), with Dhaval dirtyzoso’ Mudgal (267,284) and Devrat Vickypune’ Singh (249,560) rounding out the top three stacks.

 

PokerStars India

Grabbing the spotlight on PokerStars India was PokerGuru Ambassador Vivek ‘mystic peaks’ Singh. The Chennai-based pro topped 209 entries in the ₹15 Lakhs GTD Highroller to win ₹2.94 Lakhs, beating Aditya ‘TheSurmai’ Degala (runner-up for ₹2.16 Lakhs) heads-up.

The event had a shortfall of ₹37,000 on the listed guarantee. Some known names on the FT were Vikram ‘GreenSTUFF79’ Mishra (4th for ₹1.17 Lakhs), PokerStars India Team Pro Muskan ‘Muskan Sethi’ Sethi (5th for ₹86,723), Sumit ‘mrgr33n33Sapra (7th for ₹47,057), Ranjeet ‘BedevilforyouNegi (8th for ₹34,663), Nishant ‘DoJingBULLETSSSharma (8th for ₹30,267) and PokerGuru Ambassador Kartik ‘TheInternetKidVed (9th for ₹26,429).

Among these scorers, Sapra also posted a deep run in Adda52’s Godfather, where he finished fourth for ₹2.14 Lakhs.

Over at the ₹5 Lakhs GTD Micro Millions – 43 Battle Royale, ‘trivarga’ raced atop a 228-entry field to win the title and ₹1.05 Lakhs.
