While January 1 had witnessed a dip in traffic with most players recovering from their new year’s celebration, January 2 saw an uptick in numbers. PokerBaazi’s 1000X Series 2.0 commenced on Sunday, ensuring MTTs a wide range of lucrative guaranteed tournaments to choose from. Day 2 of the series had four events on the tap, and we saw most flagship events surpass their posted guarantees.

In two days (January 5) is PokerStars India’s fifth edition of the Winter Series will kick off, and we hear the upcoming edition will be the biggest-ever, promising over ₹3 Crores in guaranteed prizes!

The Monday chartbuster this week was Snehil Aggarwal, who made a victory run in PokerBaazi’s 1000X#8 Monday Prime to collect a hefty ₹2.93 Lakhs in the first place.

Hot on Aggarwal’s trail was the well-known reg Ashit Sharma who won PokerBaazi’s The Big Show for an incredible third time, pocketing the top prize of ₹1.99 Lakhs up top.
