Even with Spartan Poker’s The Millionaire Series 2.0 now in the books, the action on the virtual felts hasn’t slowed down. For yet another week, most of the Monday flagships comfortably crushed their advertised guarantees.
Rehmat Singh Walia was Monday’s top scorer with two deep runs on Spartan Poker. He championed the ReCharge and placed sixth in The Flash, netting ₹2.54 Lakhs in cumulative winnings.
Srihari Bang (Won Adda52’s Iron Man for ₹2.31 Lakhs), Vinay Rajpal (Won PokerBaazi’s The Big Show for ₹1.92 Lakhs), and last week’s The Millionaire champion Devrat Singh (Won PokerStars India’s Battle Royale for ₹1.27 Lakhs) took down the other flagship titles.
Here are the Monday highlights!

Spartan Poker
Spartan Poker’s Monday staple tourney, the ₹9 Lakhs GTD ReCharge, was back last night following a week-long hiatus because of The Millionaire Series 2.0. The ₹2,200 entry buy-in event wrangled in 669 contenders, resulting in a guarantee-busting ₹12.38 Lakhs prize pool. Rehmat Singh ‘Seinfeld’ Walia raced past the competition to capture his first ReCharge title, along with a ₹2.25 Lakhs paycheque. Ronuk ‘Redbullwings’ Lekhraj secured the runner-up payout worth ₹1.67 Lakhs.
Rehmat Walia also final-tabled The Flash (6th for ₹29,164), raking in a cumulative ₹2.54 Lakhs. He now boasts ₹18.2 Lakhs in lifetime online winnings.
Spartan Poker’s ₹5.50 Lakhs GTD The Flash was the other marquee tourney making a comeback. The unknown user ‘Daniel0617’ shipped the event for ₹1.32 Lakhs, while Aquib ‘Aquib17’ Ansari finished runner-up for ₹83,326. The event posted a ₹6.83 Lakhs prize pool on the back of 683 entries.

Bang defeated Sunday’s BBS#4 SuperStack runner-up finisher Dhiraj ‘supernuts’ Lakhotia (runner-up ₹1.51 Lakhs) in the heads-up showdown.
This win was a much-needed one for Srihari Bang, who had won his last title, Adda52’s The Ballers, on December 18, last year. Bang now has ₹4.60 Crores in recorded online winnings.
The ₹2.75 Lakhs GTD Voyager attracted 429 entries, posting a profitable ₹4.29 Lakhs prize pool. The mystery user ‘Lemonade’ won the event for ₹86,149, while
