Anuj ‘anuj25395’ Yadav has broken all records with his 39-week reign at the top of the annual charts. And the poker phenom is just five weeks away from walking away with the POY title.

Young Gun Yadav was on the prowl last night as he won Adda52’s ₹25 Lakhs GTD Godfather for at least the second time for ₹5.29 Lakhs, ending an almost five-week-long title drought. Before taking down the title, he struck a heads-up deal with yesterday’s chartbuster, Young Gun Sanat ‘mehro2511’ Mehrotra, who banked an equally impressive ₹4.46 Lakhs in second place.

The POY race frontrunner Anuj Yadav added another ₹2.50 Lakhs from his fourth-place finish in Spartan Poker’s LEGEND #3 Thursday Showdown, making for a Thursday take-home worth at least ₹7.79 Lakhs.

The ₹5,500 entry buy-in Godfather generated a hefty ₹25.65 Lakhs prize pool on the back of a 513-player field, and the top 55 finishers got a share from the kitty.
