Balodhi, Kwatra, Naruka, Choudhury & Wadhawan Slay the Sunday Marquees

Ever since the lockdown-induced surge in MTT guarantees, we have become accustomed to witnessing ₹1 Crore GTD tourneys playing out over the weekend. Well, this past Sunday had no such offering; nevertheless, it was still an eventful day for Team PokerGuru. Three PokerGuru Ambassadors, namely Ashutosh Balodhi, Ankit Wadhawan, and Vivek Singh clinched top-tier tourney titles, while several others posted deep runs.

While the action on the domestic felt may have slowed down a bit, the international felt has picked up the pace with the $10,000 No-Limit Hold-em World Championship going live on the GGPoker Network for international players last night.

So, without further ado, let’s check out the Sunday highlights!

Spartan Poker

The ₹35 Lakhs GTD Sunday Superstack ran its usual course on Spartan Poker yesterday. After clocking in 715 entries, the event accrued a guarantee-smashing ₹35.75 Lakhs prize pool. The primetime tourney saw Guneet ‘GeeKay’ Kwatra gunning for the title, but he lost out to Anand Babu ‘OrangeZuce’ Pallikona, who captured the title for a ₹6.89 lakhs payday. Kwatra had to contend with a runner-up finish worth ₹4.34 Lakhs.

Coming off an over two-month-long title drought, Kwatra charted a phenomenal run on Sunday. He more than made up for his narrow miss in the Sunday Superstack by taking down PokerStars India’s DIWALI RUSH-52 Sunday Highroller, banking ₹8+ Lakhs for the day.

The champion Pallikona has made a habit of winning the Sunday Superstack. He had shipped it more than a year ago in May 2019 and made another run for the title in July 2020, where he ultimately placed second. He presently sits on ₹83.73 Lakhs in recorded earnings on Spartan Poker, with a profit of ₹23.20 Lakhs.

The ₹8.50 Lakhs GTD Money Heist logged in 284 entries, generating a ₹8.52 Lakhs prize pool. Aditya ‘loosecannon’ Bahl was the last player standing in the tourney. He defeated the first-ever Millionaire United champion Mahima Walia ‘mambojojo’ Das (runner-up for ₹1.27 Lakhs) heads-up to grab a winner’s payout worth ₹1.88 Lakhs.

PokerStars India

PokerStars India’s Diwali Rush series culminated yesterday. The mega event of the series, the ₹50 Lakhs GTD DIWALI RUSH-51 Main Event, recorded 602 participants, overlaying a whopping ₹7.86 Lakhs. The ₹7,700 entry buy-in tourney took almost 10 hours of non-stop play yesterday to find a winner. Traversing the field, in the end, was PokerGuru Ambassador Ashutosh ‘Msnugget’ Balodhi, who pocketed the colossal ₹9.22 Lakhs (₹5,07,492 in prize money and ₹4,14,531 in bounties) top prize after beating out our latest Young Gun Neel ‘Worm236’ Joshi in heads-up play. Joshi took home ₹4.44 Lakhs in prize money. Balodhi now has ₹73.74 Lakhs in annual winnings, while his lifetime MTT scores have touched ₹1.77 Crores after last night`s score.

With the Diwali Rush Main Event running, the site skipped the Sunday Special yesterday; however, the ₹18 Lakhs GTD DIWALI RUSH-52 Sunday Highroller SE did take place. Registering 193 contenders, the ₹11,000 entry buy-in event easily smashed its advertised guarantee, posting a massive ₹19.30 Lakhs prize pool. The former Millionaire champion Guneet ‘GSK1515’ Kwatra took down the tourney for ₹3.83 Lakhs, outlasting Binit ‘puntertwoseven’ Saraf – who placed second for ₹2.84 Lakhs.

Kwatra, who had won Adda52’s ₹1 Crore GTD AOPS Mini ME Finale on August 9, came close to bagging a second Sunday title in Spartan Poker’s Sunday SuperStack. He ultimately placed runner-up for ₹4.34 Lakhs. He also final tabled the Money Heist, ranking seventh for ₹31,865, raking in a cumulative ₹8.46 Lakhs for the day. Last night, his phenomenal performance has propelled his lifetime winnings across the ₹4 Crore-mark (₹4.02 Crores).

Besides the Sunday Highroller, the other event that awarded TLB points for the ongoing ‘Star of the Month’ November leaderboard race was the ₹2 Lakhs GTD DIWALI RUSH-54 Ultrasonic. The event brought together 201 entrants, generating a ₹2.01 Lakhs prize pool. Kapil ‘racemonk’ Arora championed the tourney to win ₹43,021 while ‘Marvolo10’ placed second for ₹25,405.

Adda52

With no Full House or Grand Mega Suits in sight, it was a relatively quiet Sunday on Adda52. The site’s biggest guarantee tournament on Sunday was the ₹25 Lakhs GTD Adda52 Millions. Sporting a ₹11,000 entry buy-in, the event cruised past its listed guarantee to collect ₹25.70 Lakhs in the prize pool after locking in 257 entries. Kamal ‘ksn123’ Naruka traversed the crowded field and clinched the title, along with a personal-best ₹6.68 Lakhs. Naruka wrestled past Goonjan ‘gmtesting’ Mall (runner-up for ₹3.98 Lakhs) in the heads-up showdown and is now sitting atop ₹1.56 Crores in online earnings.

The other Sunday marquee, the ₹12.50 Lakhs GTD Big Slick, logged in 582 entries, generating ₹13.09 Lakhs in the prize pool. PokerGuru Ambassador Ankit ‘d00mtr00p3r’ Wadhawan had won Spartan Poker’s ₹10 Lakhs GTD TGIF on November 27. Persisting with his winning form, he added the Big Slick title to his tally, collecting ₹2.39 Lakhs in the process. This is Wadhwan’s fifth tourney victory this month, and last night`s score has pushed his overall online earnings to ₹4.31 Crores. Yash ‘yashshri’ Shrivastava booked a runner-up payday worth ₹1.75 Lakhs.

PokerBaazi

The Sunday staple event on PokerBaazi, the ₹20 Lakhs GTD BSS SuperStack, gathered 387 entries, registering an overlay deficit of ₹65,000. A little over eight hours later, online phenom Sagar ‘sagarpupul’ Choudhury came out on top and bagged the ₹4.20 Lakhs winner’s payday.

Ankur ‘Stonecold’ Sehgal came in second for ₹2.94 Lakhs. Choudhury now has ₹4.59 Crores in MTT cashes, about ₹2.20 Crores of which he has earned in 2020.

PokerBaazi had two ₹5 Lakhs GTDs events playing out on Sunday, the BSS MegaStack and BSS Monster 6-Max.

The BSS MegaStack drew 200 entries to just about meet its proposed guarantee. PokerGuru Ambassador Vivek ‘Nutpeddling729’ Singh bested fellow Team Ambassador Tathagata ‘Tintin84’ Sengupta (runner-up for ₹84,650) heads-up to win ₹1.21 Lakhs.

The BSS Monster 6-Max was not as eventful as the BSS MegaStack and suffered a ₹60,000 shortfall on the back of 176 entries. The anonymous user ‘sarthak2222’ shipped the event for ₹1.24 Lakhs, while Mahesh ‘mahikalra’ Shyamsundar finished runner-up for ₹87,150.

The latest edition of the PokerBaazi Bankroll Builder Series (PBBS) came to an end last night with the ₹2 Lakhs GTD PBBS#34 Main Event crowning a champion in ‘MADPOKER2192.’ The winner triumphed over a field of 749 entries accumulated across six starting flights to win ₹37,460, ultimately defeating Sumeet ‘Sumitsingh199’ Rajpurohit (runner-up for ₹25,640) in the heads-up finale.

Besides the winners, two more players deserve a special mention, Manish Lakhotia and Young Gun Ujjwal Narwal.

Lakhotia final tabled three tourneys last night, namely, Adda52’s Big Slick (3rd for ₹1.28 Lakhs), Spartan Poker’s Money Heist (4th for ₹71,483) and PokerBaazi’s BSS Monster 6-Max (4th for ₹41,500), collecting ₹2.41 Lakhs overall.

Narwal final tabled PokerStars India’s DIWALI RUSH-51 Main Event (4th for ₹2.22 Lakhs) and DIWALI RUSH-52 Sunday Highroller (4th for ₹1.55 Lakhs) to add ₹3.78 Lakhs to his bankroll.
