The series is coming back bigger and better for its second outing with over ₹2.5 Crores in guaranteed prizes.

About The Indian Poker Series (TIPS)

TIPS is one of the few live tournament series targeting Indians but held at an international venue. The series is the brainchild of Jaydeep Dawer and Manish Goenka that came about during the Dutch Classic series which was being held at the King’s Casino in Rozvadov. The series eventually made its debut at King’s Casino in August 2018. Given the positive response of the inaugural edition, the series is coming back for a second outing at the same venue and this time around they have tied up with online poker operators MadOverPoker, Calling Station and PokerBaazi for hosting online satellites.

Slated to kick-off on March 6, 2019, the TIPS2-Winter Edition will consist of a number of events, however, the main attraction will undoubtedly be the Main Event which sports a guarantee of €220,750 (₹1.75 Crores). With an affordable buy-in of €330 (₹26,000), the event will also give away two WSOPE Main Event Passes, one each to the winner and runner-up in the Main Event. Each Pass is valued at €10,350 (₹8.25 Lakhs).

Including the side events, the series boasts of a total prize pool guarantee exceeding ₹2.50 Crores.

The Indian Poker Series 2nd Edition Schedule

Speaking to PokerGuru, co-founder of TIPS Manish Goenka said, “The main objective of TIPS is to provide a European Poker experience to the Indian Poker players at the cost of a series in Goa. We want the numbers of globe trotters from India to get into 3 digits from the 25-35 something that can regularly afford to travel for now.”
