The online poker landscape was ablaze with high-stakes excitement throughout the week, driven by Spartan Poker’s massive ₹25 Crores GTD Legend Poker Series and PokerBaazi’s spectacular ₹6-plus Crores GTD 1000X Series 5.0.

Pocket52 has also turned September into a poker treasure trove, offering an astonishing ₹10 Crores in tournament guarantees. These events, along with other significant tournaments on top poker platforms, ensured a whirlwind of poker showdowns in the digital arena.

With the impending deadline of October 1 for the proposed 28% GST on deposits, players and operators alike have been looking to capitalize on the window available before imminent industry shifts.

In terms of individual achievements, Young Gun Gaurav Sood (annual winnings – ₹3.92 Crores) remains the force to reckon with. He is marching steadily towards possibly clinching an unparalleled third Player of the Year title. Sood’s 13-week leadership in the POY race, combined with his top position in the annual profit charts boasting ₹1.90 Crores, underlines his supremacy in online MTTs. However, challengers like Ashish Munot (annual winnings – ₹3.52 Crores), currently in the #2 spot, and Ankit Wadhawan (annual winnings – ₹3.28 Crores), who has reclaimed his #3 rank, are meticulously crafting strategies to challenge his lead.

The podium finishers of the EndBoss 6.0, Arun Sriram (weekly winnings – ₹1.05 Crores, monthly winnings – ₹1.07 Crores), Thiyam Dannish (weekly winnings – ₹56.84 Lakhs, monthly winnings – ₹57.84 Lakhs), and Nitin Rawat (weekly winnings – ₹31.21 Lakhs, monthly winnings – ₹38.14 Lakhs) have solidified their positions in the top three spots on both the monthly and weekly leaderboards.

Ankit Wadhawan’s return to the online poker arena mirrors the triumphant comeback of a sports star following a sabbatical. His six-week absence, during which he graced the grandeur of the 2023 WSOP in Las Vegas, temporarily cost him his podium spot in the Player of the Year (POY) race. However, after four weeks of climbing the ranks, he resurfaced in the third position.

In the past week alone, Wadhawan accumulated ₹9.06 Lakhs from six deep runs, including an exceptional runner-up finish in Adda52’s Big Whale and a final table appearance in Godfather. What truly sets Wadhawan apart is his unwavering tenacity. While many players might lose hope in the POY race after slipping in the rankings, he clung firmly to the #3 spot on the annual leaderboard. This serves as a testament to the substantial lead he had established earlier in the year, a reflection of his strategic gameplay, consistent performance, and a series of victorious outings.

His ₹3.28 Crores in winnings is undoubtedly an impressive figure on its own, but the real highlight is his staggering ₹97.32 Lakhs in net profits, underscoring the efficiency and prowess of his poker skills.
