Daily Majors: Rohan Bhasin Ships ‘The Big Deal;’ Md. Zeeshan, Sushil Kumar, Yash Chitre & Tanmaya Sahoo Champion the Other Monday Flagships

Mondays are typically the slowest day of the week for online poker players. And like all of last week, yesterday again, the vast majority of the marquees registered significant overlays.

Spartan Poker’s Monday night high roller, The Big Deal, with its ₹30 Lakhs prize pool guarantee, was the day`s featured event. The ₹22,000 entry buy-in saw the June Millionaire champion Rohan Bhasin walk away with the title and a ₹8.25 Lakhs cash prize, just as Ankit Khattar came second for ₹5.87 Lakhs. The former Millionaire Legends & IOPC Super High Roller champion Dhruvin Kothari placed third for ₹3.84 Lakhs.

Sushil Kumar championed the other Spartan Poker Monday flagship, the ReCharge, for ₹1.74 Lakhs.

Yash Chitre came out on top in Adda52`s Iron Man to win ₹1.54 Lakhs following a three-way deal with Vidur Singhal (2nd for ₹1.46 Lakhs) and Vivek Karwa (3^rd for ₹1.41 Lakhs).

The three-time Uppercut champion Tanmaya Sahoo shipped PokerStars India’s Battle Royale for ₹1.33 Lakhs. With four more ITM cashes on the site, Sahoo’s Monday earnings added up to ₹1.38 Lakhs.

Rising Star Aman Parakh, upcoming poker streamer Nitin Rawat, Chhajer, Anirban D. Das & Amit Kaushik were the other standout winners of the day.

Spartan Poker

Spartan Poker’s Monday MTT schedule had both The Big Deal and the ReCharge running together. Offering high-stakes action was the ₹22,000 entry buy-in The Big Deal, where the numbers plummeted from last week’s 140 entries to only 113 participants last night. The tourney experienced an overlay for the fourth consecutive week, but it was a glaring ₹7.40 Lakhs this time, translating into good value for the top 11 finishers who earned payouts!

The dust settled in a little over six hours, and it was one of the June’ Millionaire champions Rohan ‘The Sightseer’ Bhasin walking away with his second flagship title on the site in under 10 days and a ₹8.25 Lakhs payday. Ankit ‘Asymptote05’ Khattar placed runner-up for ₹5.87 Lakhs.

Rohan Bhasin had also won an NPS Gold Medal in the ₹8 Lakhs GTD NPS#18 Deepdive on June 15 for ₹3.17 Lakhs. He fired three bullets in the event last night before making it to the top.

The ₹8.50 Lakhs GTD ReCharge registered a better turnout, with 434 participants joining the action to collect ₹8.68 Lakhs in the prize pool. Sushil ‘lex_veldi82’ Kumar was the last player standing and won ₹1.74 Lakhs, with ‘krishh87’ placing runner-up for ₹1.16 Lakhs.

‘kj457’ (Won Monster Stack ₹3 Lakhs GTD for ₹75,653), ‘Whiteelephant (Won Night Rider – Monster Stack ₹2.1 Lakhs GTD for ₹55,737), Anirban D ‘pokernoob’ Das (Won Ultimate PLO ₹1.50 Lakhs GTD for ₹46,057), ‘aggshank’ (Won Epic ₹1.25 Lakhs GTD for ₹21,434) and ‘JanTt’ (Won Epic ₹40K GTD for ₹9,812) took down the other Monday marquees on the site.

PokerBaazi

PokerBaazi’s ₹7.50 Lakhs GTD The Big Show had 338 hopefuls ponying up the ₹2,750 entry buy-in, all for a shot at the title and a piece of the guarantee-crushing ₹8.45 Lakhs prize pool. The 31-year-old Md ‘007Bahubali’ Zeeshan, a scriptwriter by profession, put a two-month-long title drought behind him by taking down the event for ₹1.77 Lakhs.

Ranjeet ‘Rj147’ Negi (2^nd for ₹1.24 Lakhs) and Rajneesh ‘msdhoni’ Thakur (3rd for ₹79,853) completed the trio of podium finishers.

The Monday score has boosted the former Full House champion Md Zeeshan’s lifetime winnings to ₹1.75 Crores (₹17.65 Lakhs in net profits).

The ₹1.5 Lakhs GTD 6-Max Holdem BOOST DST played out amid 232 challengers, collecting a guarantee-smashing 2.32 Lakhs prize pool. The former IOPC title winner Abhishek ‘abhiom’ Chhajer navigated his way to the title, taking it down for ₹54,590. The NPS#43 Deepdive champion Aditya ‘konstantin’ Singh finished runner-up for ₹38,303.

Aditya Singh also finished 45^th in The Big Show for ₹4,732, crossing the ₹1 Crore benchmark in tracked online winnings.

PokerStars India

PokerStars India’s Monday night bonanza, the Battle Royale, offered a better ₹7 Lakhs in guaranteed prize money on its latest run, an increase from ₹6 Lakhs last Monday. However, the added guarantee failed to produce results with a turnout of 196 participants resulting in an overlay deficit worth ₹2.05 Lakhs. The three-time Uppercut champion Tanmaya ‘tks5432’ Sahoo shipped the event for ₹1.33 Lakhs (includes ₹54,639 in bounties) while Sreeharsha ‘DonkeyCommitted’ Boneni placed second for ₹89,455 (includes ₹11,494 in bounties).

Tanmaya Sahoo made ITM finishes in another four events on PokerStars India yesterday, collectively earning ₹1.38 Lakhs. He now boasts ₹83.39 Lakhs in lifetime winnings (15.38 Lakhs in net profits).

The ₹1.50 Lakhs GTD Deepstack logged in a guarantee-crushing 146 entries. The mystery player ‘gabriel foster’ came out on top to win ₹43,765 (includes ₹26,660 in bounties), with ‘muttonmm’ placing runner-up for ₹22,965 (includes ₹5,859 in bounties).

The upcoming poker streamer Nitin ‘NRIPOKER’ Rawat final tabled two PokerStars India marquees. He came in third in the Battle Royale for ₹58,623 while picking up a fourth-place score worth ₹9,952 in the Deepstack. He added ₹68,575 in Monday earnings, moving up to ₹29.21 Lakhs in lifetime winnings.

Amit ‘Stu Ungar 7694’ Kaushik championed the ₹1.50 Lakhs GTD Ultrasonic for ₹42,801, his sixth time winning the tourney! Kaushik ITM-ed seven more events, netting ₹1.09 Lakhs overall.

Amit Kaushik`s stats: Lifetime Winnings: ₹1.50 Crores | Lifetime Profits: ₹53.32 Lakhs

‘s291405’ (Won Ultra KO 90% ₹50K GTD for ₹21,012), ‘manav95’ (Won Bigstack Turbo ₹1 Lakh GTD for ₹20,500), Kiran ‘D Badshaa’ Pawar (Won Afternoon on Stars ₹75K GTD for ₹16,337), ‘PadfootProngs’ (Won Deepstack ₹70K GTD for ₹14,789), and ‘3BET@NOMERCY’ (Won Primetime Grind ₹60K GTD for ₹12,594) took down the other Monday titles.

Adda52

Adda52’s Monday headliner, the ₹8 Lakhs GTD Iron Man, drew a guarantee-smashing 494 entries, and the top 49 places took a bite out of the ₹8.99 Lakhs prize pool. The two-time Running Hot champion Yash ‘Babyshark21’ Chitre bagged the title for his 13^th title victory of the year and a ₹1.54 Lakhs payday. Chitre struck a three-way deal with Vidur ‘bullgod89’ Singhal (runner-up for ₹1.46 Lakhs) and Vivek ‘victor2coolsmart’ Karwa (3^rd for ₹1.41 Lakhs).

While Chitre’s career-best score remains his runner-up finish worth ₹5.27 Lakhs in one of the June editions of the Destiny, his lifetime winnings have touched ₹59.94 Lakhs after last night`s win.

The Voyager was also able to breach its ₹3 Lakhs guarantee to collect a ₹3.95 Lakhs prize pool on the back of 395 entries. ‘puchusharma1’ proved the last player standing and won ₹97,950 with Rising Star Aman ‘karmapoker’ Parakh placing runner-up for ₹59,250.
