Debapriya Manna Wins APT Online India Main Event For ₹18.55 Lakhs; Sahil Mahboobani, Saurabh Rohila & Vikranth Varma Add Million-Plus to Their Bankroll on Sunday

A rainy weekend mirrored the thundering action on the virtual felts. As the APT India Online Series (PokerBaazi) and Nano Poker Series (Adda52) ended, the inaugural India Turbo Masters (Spartan Poker) kicked off, making for a hectic and very profitable weekend for many players.

Sunday`s biggest winner, unsurprisingly, came from the day’s biggest guaranteed event, i.e., PokerBaazi`s ₹1.50 Crores GTD APT#57 Main Event. Debapriya Manna sattied his way to victory, winning a career-best ₹18.55 Lakhs and the APT Trophy and Championship Ring.

Seasoned MTT pro Sahil Mahboobani took a serious shot at the APT Main Event title but fell one spot short, settling for a runner-up payout worth ₹14.59 Lakhs. He scored in three more events, bringing in ₹15.03 Lakhs in Sunday winnings.

Sunday marked the start of Spartan Poker’s inaugural India Turbo Masters, but the site also ran its massive ₹50 Lakhs GTD Sunday High Roller. The user ‘Craftplayer’ triumphed over the 97-player field to win the High Roller title for ₹12.04 Lakhs.

The IOPC JUNE 2022 – The Crown champion Saurabh Rohila has been on a run of a lifetime since last month. Rohila, who is ranked #4 in the annual leaderboard standings, made away with an incredible ₹11.91 Lakhs in Sunday winnings on the back of deep runs in Spartan Poker’s Sunday High Roller (3rd for ₹6.40 Lakhs), PokerBaazi’s APT#58 Megastack (1st for ₹3.16 Lakhs) and PokerStars India`s Sunday Highroller (3rd for ₹1.41 Lakhs). His spectacular Sunday run made him the fourth player on our tracked database to cross ₹2 Crores in annual winnings.

Spartan Poker rolled out an appetizing opening day schedule for its inaugural India Turbo Masters. The ₹50 Lakhs GTD ITM #6 Blizzard was the day`s featured event, and the multi-flight, single-day event roped in 871 entrants. Friday`s APT#42 Super Highroller champion Vikranth Varma was the last player standing and won ₹9.65 Lakhs after striking a three-way with “Onlastbuy-in” (2nd for 6.89 Lakhs) & Harsh Kumar Dembla (3rd for 6,87,121).

The IPC Megastacks Kickoff champion Mahesh Shyamsundar won the ITM #3 Sunday Supersonic for ₹6.48 Lakhs. He added ₹7.12 Lakhs in Sunday earnings on the back of four ITM finishes.

The veteran poker pro Shravan Chhabria championed Adda52 Millions for an impressive fourth time last night for ₹6.71 Lakhs.

The #2 ranked player of 2021, Manish Lakhotia, has been keeping a relatively low profile this year. But he made the Sunday headlines after taking down Adda52’s Nano Highroller for ₹2.82 Lakhs, outlasting Manik Kapoor (2nd for ₹2.07 Lakhs) heads-up.

Animesh Tripathi won the other trophy event on the last day of PokerBaazi`s biggest-ever APT Online India series, APT#56 Sunday Major, for ₹6.46 Lakhs. He struck a heads-up deal with ‘Superkid7777’ (2nd for ₹6.50 Lakhs).
