Spartan Poker`s extravagant ₹25 Crores GTD IOPC is just a day away! For now, let’s take a look at the biggest winners from across the online platforms on Tuesday.
Lighting up the virtual felts on Tuesday was the ₹20 Lakhs GTD Mega Stack. The ₹3,300 buy-in tourney logged in 689 entries, to accrue ₹20.67 Lakhs in the prize pool. Anonymous user ‘Hiteshh’ beat out ‘BuddyLove’ (runner-up for ₹2.51 Lakhs) heads-up to win ₹3.99 Lakhs – the player`s best-recorded score on the site. Sanish ‘Sanish21’ Chhabra placed third for ₹1.80 Lakhs, crossing the ₹39 Lakh-mark in yearly winnings.
The other primetime tourney, the ₹7.5 Lakhs GTD Race, registered 499 entries falling one entry short on the posted guarantee. Anirudh ‘flash’ Reddy traversed the field to win the title for ₹1.22 Lakhs after locking in a heads-up deal with Gautam ‘Rabbithunter’ Kaul (runner-up for ₹1.17 Lakhs). Reddy is a consistent winner on the site, and his online graph shows that he has profited over ₹30 Lakhs playing MTT`s on Spartan Poker to date.
PokerBaazi’s ₹15 Lakhs GTD Endeavour logged in a 456-strong field, piling in ₹15.96 Lakhs in the prize pool kitty. After eight hours and fifteen minutes of play, Jeeran ‘J6off’ Jain was the last player standing and took home a site-best score of ₹3.21 Lakhs. Jain sits with ₹15 Lakhs in winnings on PokerBaazi. He seems to have resumed playing on the site these last two-three days, and that too after a gap of over eight months.
APL ambassador Sumit ‘boronyx’ Sapra finished runner-up for ₹2.25 Lakhs. He is currently ranked #11 on the yearly leader board with almost ₹1.60 Crores in winnings!
Headlining the action on Adda52 was the ₹7.5 Lakhs GTD Hitman. Sporting a buy-in of ₹4,500, the tourney clocked in a field of 241 entries to secure a prize pool worth ₹7.71 Lakhs. In the end, Ankit ‘helter_skelter’ Kapoor came out on top after beating ‘annanya_agarwal92’ (runner-up for ₹1.23 Lakhs) heads-up for the title and the ₹2.12 Lakhs first-place cash prize. This happens to be Kapoor’s second-biggest score on the site.
The ₹3 Lakhs GTD Hexagram played down to a heads-up chop between Young Gun Siddharth ‘skaria’ Karia (₹85,300) and Harshit ‘Harshit114’ Sanghi (runner-up for ₹72,130). A turnout of 173 entries helped generate ₹3.46 Lakhs in prize money.
The last five days of the AOPS that were re-scheduled resume play today.
Unlike last Tuesday, the ₹8 Lakhs GTD Sixth Sense could not meet its posted guarantee yesterday. The ₹3,300 buy-in tourney brought together 246 entries, to suffer a shortfall of ₹62,000. The almost seven-hour-long grind came to a close with former PGT champion Karan ‘999AykA999’ Jain winning the title and ₹1.46 Lakhs in prize money.
Jain has become a regular online player off-late and has quickly accumulated ₹55 Lakhs in online winnings. Jain defeated Sagar ‘0B0RRA’ Patnaik in the heads-up play, the latter collecting ₹1.05 Lakhs. Patnaik made two podium finishes yesterday. His other deep run was in Adda52’s Hexagram, where he placed third for ₹44,980.
The site`s ₹5 Lakhs GTD Super Tuesday recorded 158 entries, falling ₹1.05 Lakhs short of the break-even mark. Making the most of the situation was Ashwin ‘Ashwinvijay’ Vijay, who clinched the title and ₹93,627 in prize money following a heads-up deal with Sushant ‘sush2209’ Singh (runner-up for ₹82,741).
