The site’s Thursday flagship, the ₹16 Lakhs GTD Trending Thursday, registered 553 entries, rounding up a bumper prize pool worth ₹19.35 Lakhs, over 20% more than its advertised guarantee. It took close to eight hours of play for Mayank ‘$Magician$’ Makhija to take down the event for a career-best ₹3.77 Lakhs. His heads-up opponent was the Sunday Superstack champion Niharika ‘nutcracker303’ Bindra (runner-up for ₹2.40 Lakhs).
