The Republic Day Weekend leg of the India Poker Legend (IPL) got off to a promising start with 51 players making their way onboard the floating Casino Royale at Panjim (Goa) to take part in the 1st event of the series – ₹3K Turbo 2X Re-buy Tournament.
The low buy-in was a major attraction for players on a tight bankroll and a surprising number of players made their very first tournament appearance with this event. At the end of the re-entry period we had a total of 91 entries with top 9 players getting paid. Tournament Regular – Husain Lakdawala was the bubble boy of the event after he hit the rails in 10th place. Team PokerGuru Pro- Sangeeth “Samohh” Mohan continued his stupendous tournament form with yet another in-the-money finish and finished 2nd behind Niharika Bindra who became the first lady winner at the IPL.
