Daily Majors: Vishal Tulsyan, Rubin Labroo, Arsh Grover, Rohan Bhasin, Deepanjan Das & Gaurav Sood Tame the Tuesday Flagships

The online poker action was significantly more electrifying than a usual Tuesday, thanks largely to the National Poker Series currently underway on PokerBaazi. The inaugural series is off to a flying start after recording guarantee-crushing turnouts on the first three days of its 15-day run.

PokerStars India`s first-ever Summer Series also powered down last night with Vishal ‘mdigurgaon’ Tulsyan taking down the Main Event title for a jaw-dropping ₹16.47 Lakhs.

Both the Spartan Poker marquees were championed by the 2020 leaderboard toppers. Young Gun Arsh ‘BigggTymeR’ Grover shipped the Mega Stack – Millionaire Bubble while Gaurav ‘mozzie17’ Sood took down The Race.

Rohan ‘likeaboss85’ Bhasin was the biggest of the three NPS Gold Medal winners yesterday as he came out on top in the ₹8 Lakhs GTD NPS#18 Deepdive. Deepanjan ‘Bluffstar’ Das also bagged his first NPS Gold Medal in the ₹3 Lakhs GTD NPS#10 PLO DeepDive – and he did it while live-streaming his deep run!

Rubin ‘kornkif’ Labroo, Sanish ‘sneakysani’ Chhabra, Rising Star Aman ‘Karmapoker’ Parakh, Debashis ‘dev255-pg1’ Bal, Parag ‘Persie’ Shah, and Pranav ‘pkpok13’ Khandalkar won the other Tuesday marquees.

Spartan Poker

Spartan Poker’s Daily Poker Marathon had two Tuesday marquees lined up on the schedule. The day`s headliner, the ₹20 Lakhs GTD Mega Stack – Millionaire Bubble, brought in a starting field of 662 entries – an almost 10% drop in attendance compared to the 725 entrants last week – overlaying ₹14,000. Young Gun Arsh ‘BigggTymeR’ Grover was the last player standing and won ₹3.48 Lakhs after striking a heads-up deal with the former The Millionaire and Mega Suits champion Hitesh ‘hitesh bhai’ Batra (runner-up for ₹2.85 Lakhs).

The #2 ranked player of 2020, Arsh Grover, bagged his third six-figure score in under a week. The Delhi-based MTT pro was one of the top Sunday winners on the back of his runner-up finish in The Millionaire for ₹9.59 Lakhs, and with 18.89 Lakhs in total winnings this past week, he has laddered up to the #8 spot on the annual leaderboard standings. Grover sits on the edge of the “₹8 Crore Club” with over ₹7.99 Crores in lifetime winnings.

The 8 PM event got in the books at 4:23 AM and paid out 55 places. PokerGuru Ambassador Ashish ‘Spewushhhiiiii’ Ahuja money-bubbled the event in 56^th place to win a ‘The Millionaire’ Day 1A ticket.

The ₹7.50 Lakhs GTD The Race also witnessed a noticeable decline in numbers with 470 hopefuls (compared to the 515 entries last week) ponying up the ₹1,650 entry buy-in, resulting in an overlay shortfall of ₹45,000. Young Gun Gaurav ‘mozzie17’ Sood came out on top to add ₹1.40 Lakhs to his burgeoning bankroll after striking a heads-up deal with Ajit Singh ‘Thoda Bahot’ Arora (runner-up for ₹1.10 Lakhs).

The undisputed #1 ranked player of 2020, Gaurav Sood, is one of three players sitting on over ₹2 Crores in annual earnings. Last night`s win fetched Sood his 16^th title victory of the year, further reinforcing his status as the frontrunner to become the first player on our tracked database to cross the ₹9 Crores milestone in online earnings.

Gaurav Sood`s stats: Lifetime Winnings: ₹8.76 Crores|Lifetime Profits: ₹4.49 Crores|Annual Winnings: ₹2.06 Crores

Rising Star Aman ‘Karmapoker’ Parakh (Won Monster Stack ₹3 Lakhs GTD for ₹63,958), Mega Stack third-place finisher Debashis ‘dev255-pg1’ Bal (Won Ultimate PLO ₹2 Lakhs GTD for ₹51,260) & Parag ‘Persie’ Shah (Won Night Rider – Deepstack Turbo ₹2.10 Lakhs GTD for ₹49,918) won the other Tuesday marquees on Spartan Poker.

PokerStars India

PokerStars India`s inaugural Summer Series is finally in the books, with the ₹1 Crore GTD Summer Series – 123 Main Event playing down to a winner last night. The ₹11,000 entry buy-in event registered 912 entries, filling in a sizable ₹8.80 Lakhs overlay. Only 18 players returned for the final day`s play last evening, and outlasting them all was Vishal ‘mdigurgaon’ Tulsyan, who banked a whopping ₹16.47 Lakhs for the win. The mystery user ‘SSR@LUCKY’ placed runner-up for ₹12.07 Lakhs!

The former AOPS Main Event Finale and Two of a Kind champion, Vishal Tulsyan, prefers to maintain a low profile, but his online exploits have made it challenging for him to stay out of the spotlight.

Pranav ‘PranV’ Agrawal (4^th for ₹6.48 Lakhs), the #1 ranked player of the year Manish ‘theoldestkid’ Lakhotia (5^th for ₹4.75 Lakhs), Vaibhav ‘vaibsss’ Bhatia (6^th for ₹3.48 Lakhs), Sahil ‘you3bi4b’ Nair (7^th for ₹2.55 Lakhs), and Rajat ‘sharabikebabi’ Sharma (9^th for ₹1.37 Lakhs) also FT-ed the Summer Series Main Event.

Running alongside Day 3 of the Summer Series Main Event was the ₹6 Lakhs GTD Sixth Sense. The ₹2,200 entry buy-in event gathered 280 entrants, overlaying ₹40,000. The former The Millionaire champion Sanish ‘sneakysani’ Chhabra was the last player standing and won ₹97,861 after besting ‘wolfbacki45’ (runner-up for ₹70,892) in the heads-up play.

Sanish Chhabra picked up his seventh online title with this win, crossing ₹3.09 Crores in lifetime online winnings.

PokerBaazi

The inaugural National Poker Series (NPS) is on its fourth day today, and the past three days have been nothing short of spectacular. All NPS events have crushed their guarantees comfortably so far, with many even collecting over 2X the advertised guarantee.

Flight 1C of the ₹1 Crore GTD NPS#8 Golden Rush recorded 1,262 entries, taking the total entry count to 4,934 participants.

The mad rush of players in the Golden Rush spilled onto Flight 1D Last Chance of the NPS#11 Kick-Off. The last starting flight of the ₹2,750 entry buy-in event logged in 702 hopefuls, and after the stipulated levels of play, only 75 players made the cut for Day 2. The event needed 321 entries last night to break even, and with 2,381 registrations, it ended up collecting a juicy ₹59.52 Lakhs prize pool! ‘dev112410’ (456,000), Nitin ‘philhermouth’ Arora (412,000), and ‘Psyberius’ (365,000) bagged the top stacks of the day.

The ₹10 Lakhs GTD NPS#16 Freezeout was the third event running a starting flight on Tuesday. Flight 1B commenced at 8 PM and logged in 287 entries. After 4 hours and 24 minutes of gameplay, only 56 players bagged a stack, with The Endeavour champion Prince ‘NaNki’ Singh (192,000), Ashumi ‘Mavrik’ Parekh (169,000), and Dipankar ‘dbelieves’ Arhat (161,000) rounding out the top three stacks of the flight. The ₹2,750 entry buy-in event has filled in 608 seats, crushing its advertised ₹10 Lakhs prize pool guarantee by over 50%, with one flight still to go.

The biggest guaranteed event to award medals was the ₹8 Lakhs GTD NPS#18 Deepdive. The ₹1,650 entry buy-in event logged in 1,256 contenders, collecting over 2X the advertised guarantee! The whopping ₹18.84 Lakhs prize pool was shared among the top 144 places, and Rohan ‘likeaboss85’ Bhasin walked away with the lion`s share of the prize pool worth ₹3.17 Lakhs and the NPS gold medal. Kapil ‘kapsa92’ Kumar Vasita finished runner-up for ₹2.22 Lakhs.

Deepanjan ‘Bluffstar’ Das also bagged his first NPS Gold Medal in the ₹3 Lakhs GTD NPS#10 PLO DeepDive, netting ₹1.51 Lakhs. However, what made this victory sweeter for the upcoming streamer was that he won the Gold while live-streaming his run in the event. You can watch the replay of the stream below.

‘crushflips’ won the third NPS Gold Medal awarded on Tuesday after taking down the ₹2 Lakhs GTD NPS#13 Sprint (6-Max) for ₹98,784.
