Daily Majors: M Jimmy, Siddharth Karia, and Arbaaz Ahmed Among Monday’s Top Performers
As the clock ticked toward the final hours of the year, online poker platforms became the stage for one last round of intense action. Players across the country logged in for their shot at a closing triumph, chasing leaderboard glory and year-end bankroll boosts. PokerBaazi led the charge with a stacked lineup of tournaments, Natural8 India boasted some of the biggest winners of the day, and Adda52’s ₹2.50 Crores GTD Christmas & New Year Carnival kept the festive energy alive. Not to be left behind, Junglee Poker and Pocket52 brought their own flair, ensuring the year ended with no shortage of high-stakes drama.
In the heart of this electrifying frenzy, M Jimmy made a triumphant return on Natural8 India. Having captured attention earlier in July with a podium finish in the Sunday Crazy Eights Asia 8.88, Jimmy had been off the radar for five months. But his return was nothing short of spectacular. Facing a daunting field of 1,759 players in the GGMasters Asia 25, he maneuvered his way to the top, walking away with ₹5.13 Lakhs—his biggest win yet on the platform. This victory not only closed his year on a personal high but also pushed his total winnings on Natural8 past ₹14 Lakhs, making him the day’s standout performer.
Natural8 also saw platform newcomer ‘milky_way99’ making waves. After an impressive debut earlier this month, they once again proved their mettle. Taking on the massive 9,299-strong field in the Omaholic Mystery Ball 108, they secured a 31st-place finish, earning ₹5 Lakhs—another personal best. Their consistent run has already started turning heads in the community.
Meanwhile, PokerBaazi’s tournament tables saw their share of fireworks. The mysterious ‘J500PC,’ fresh off a Sunday win in the BSS, delivered yet another spectacular run. They claimed the top spot in The Big Show, clinching ₹4.10 Lakhs from a three-way deal. It was a career-defining moment for them, smashing their previous best score on the platform by nearly seven times. Joining the ranks of big winners was Arbaaz Ahmed, last year’s EndBoss 7.0 runner-up, who came in second. Ahmed’s payout of ₹3.48 Lakhs marked his best performance of the year and added another highlight to an already illustrious career. The podium was rounded out by another fresh face, ‘jumboSnaps97487,’ who earned ₹3.32 Lakhs—their largest payday yet on PokerBaazi.
Natural8 India witnessed an eventful day as Young Gun Siddharth Karia made a striking comeback after a four-month break. Jumping back into the action, Karia battled his way to a runner-up finish in the Daily Special 88, outlasting all but one of the 347 entries. The effort earned him ₹3.90 Lakhs, a reward that marked his re-entry into the online grind with style. Anant Purohit, currently ranked #2 in the Player of the Year race, demonstrated why he’s among the elites. Taking on a massive field of 9,299 entries in the Omaholic Mystery Ball 108, Purohit held his nerve to carve out a ₹2.04 Lakhs payday. The deep run added another impressive chapter to his ongoing poker journey.
Over at PokerBaazi, the enigmatic ‘Ikka5,’ known for their victory in May’s Mini HighRoller (Double Ante), claimed their first Daily Last Chance title. This win brought them ₹1.58 Lakhs, with another deep run pushing their total for the day past ₹1.72 Lakhs. Ankit Thakur, a regular feature in high-stakes tournaments, settled for second place but walked away with a respectable ₹1.07 Lakhs.
Sandeep Singh kept his momentum alive with a victory in The Big Show Lite on PokerBaazi. After a heads-up deal, Singh pocketed ₹1.58 Lakhs, reaffirming his consistency on the platform. Hot on his heels was Inzemaam Husain, who added another strong finish to his resume. Fresh off podium finishes in last week’s The Quest Lite and Sunday’s Gravitron, Husain claimed ₹1.46 Lakhs for his runner-up finish.
Pocket52 had its share of drama as well, with mid-stakes regular Mayank Maruka stealing the show. Known for his five previous Daily Last Chance wins, Maruka made his mark in the Pocket Jacks. This latest victory added ₹1.37 Lakhs to his bankroll, making it his biggest score on the platform and his first title on Pocket52 this year. Maruka also racked up three more deep runs, pushing his day’s tally to over ₹1.53 Lakhs. Online grinder ‘Hayabusaa’ came close but had to settle for second place, earning ₹95,865.
Adda52 saw an exciting day on the virtual felt as newcomer ‘Championsharma’ continued their impressive form. Just days after a Friday Bumper Car win, they grabbed the spotlight again in the Devils Wheel tournament. Navigating a challenging field, they walked away with ₹1.17 Lakhs—their second-largest score on the platform. Adding another deep run to their tally, their total earnings for the day came close to ₹1.20 Lakhs. The runner-up, ‘dwanivey,’ also had a day to remember, recording a personal best payout of ₹86,791.
The action didn’t stop there. Monday was packed with remarkable performances as players across the stakes fought for glory. Aditya Sharma (won two titles), Arpan Majhi, Ishaan Pandya, Paramjeet, Satyapal, and Sachin Rampal all made their mark as they took down marquee events, each adding a significant boost to their bankrolls.

With less than 24 hours remaining until the New Year, the virtual felt on PokerBaazi was ablaze with excitement, mirroring the anticipation of a grand New Year’s Eve celebration. Amidst a diverse offering of high-stakes tournaments, the ₹30 Lakhs GTD The Big Show stood out as the premier event, attracting a substantial field of players eager to conclude the year on a triumphant note. In this fiercely competitive environment, it was ‘J500PC’ who emerged as the champion, leaving an indelible mark on the evening’s proceedings.
Active on PokerBaazi since September 2018, ‘J500PC’ recently achieved success on Sunday, securing their first title of the year with a victory in the BSS. Building upon this momentum, they made a resounding statement by capturing their second title in as many days, demonstrating a remarkable ability to capitalize on their recent form.
The Big Show attracted a formidable turnout of 644 entries (377 unique), and after an intense seven-and-a-half-hour contest, ‘J500PC’ delivered a performance that distinguished them from the rest of the field. Their victory in this 8 PM headliner earned them an impressive ₹4.10 Lakhs, secured through a three-way deal. This win marked their biggest score on the platform, nearly seven times greater than their previous best, and established them as the third-biggest winner of the day, trailing only Natural8 India users M Jimmy and ‘milky_way99.’

While ‘J500PC’ celebrated their triumph, Arbaaz ‘Abbc’ Ahmed presented a formidable challenge. Renowned for his remarkable runner-up finish in EndBoss 7.0 last December, Ahmed has enjoyed a successful year. In September, he claimed the 1000X#12 title, followed by two more victories this month in the Daily Boost and WPT#77 Ultra Deepstack. Adding to his accolades, Ahmed has made an impressive eight final table appearances this month alone.
Building on these accomplishments, Ahmed was aiming for his seventh title of the year and his first The Big Show crown. He fought tenaciously but narrowly missed the top spot, finishing as the runner-up for ₹3.48 Lakhs as a result of the deal. This marked his best performance of the year and the fifth-highest payout of his career. With this impressive run, Ahmed appears poised to carry his winning form into the New Year, setting the stage for even more extraordinary achievements to come.

The start of the week on PokerBaazi was characterized by a surge of activity, with a series of high-octane flagship tournaments maintaining an elevated level of excitement. The action culminated in the ₹10 Lakhs GTD Daily Last Chance, a late-night event that brought Monday to an electrifying close on India’s premier poker platform.
Emerging triumphant from the intense competition was ‘Ikka5’ (anonymity requested), a dedicated player since 2017. They had been pursuing a significant victory since their win in the Mini HighRoller (Double Ante) in May. Despite consistent performances, including a notable seventh-place finish in the WPT#87 Championship just last week, the top spot had remained elusive – until last night. Demonstrating focused determination and a calculated approach, they secured their first Daily Last Chance title and their third victory of the year.
As the 10:30 PM tournament commenced, ‘Ikka5’s’ concentration was palpable. Over six hours and 18 minutes, they navigated a substantial field of 453 entries (277 unique), ultimately surpassing the tournament’s guarantee. Their strategic plays proved effective, culminating in a well-deserved victory. ‘Ikka5’ claimed the title and a prize of ₹1.58 Lakhs after utilizing two entries. Their success extended beyond this single event, as they also achieved a deep run in The Big Show, bringing their total Monday winnings to over ₹1.72 Lakhs.

Despite the excitement and impressive lineup, the Daily Last Chance fell short of its advertised guarantee, resulting in a minor overlay of ₹15,178. However, this created enhanced value for the 65 players who cashed in, each pocketing at least ₹5,500—more than double the ₹2,500 buy-in. It marked a profitable and rewarding start to the poker week for many participants!

As the year approached its conclusion, the virtual felt witnessed a surge of activity, culminating in a thrilling penultimate day of competition. In PokerBaazi’s ₹10 Lakhs GTD The Big Show Lite, it was Sandeep ‘PoKcey’ Singh who ultimately claimed the spotlight.
Singh’s path to victory had been characterized by perseverance. Since his Daily Last Chance win in September, he had consistently registered deep runs, including six final table appearances. Notably, he secured a podium finish in The MoneyMaker 89.0 in October and narrowly missed the top spot in The Endeavour in November. Yet, the top spot had remained just beyond his grasp.
In the 7:30 PM flagship event, Singh’s resolve was evident. After investing two bullets, he navigated a substantial field of 691 entries (398 unique), engaging in a demanding battle that extended beyond six hours. The culmination of his efforts saw him reach the heads-up stage, where a strategic deal was brokered, ensuring substantial payouts for both remaining players. Singh secured his inaugural The Big Show Lite title and a first-place prize of ₹1.58 Lakhs.

Inzemaam ‘Shavzz’ Husain also delivered a noteworthy performance. Following podium finishes in last week’s The Quest Lite and Sunday’s Gravitron, Husain entered The Big Show Lite with the objective of ending a title drought that had persisted for over 27 months. Like Singh, Husain also opted for two bullets in his pursuit of victory. While he ultimately fell short of the title, his runner-up finish, bolstered by the heads-up deal, earned him a commendable ₹1.46 Lakhs.

Daily Majors: Akash Malik is Crushing it in Taipei and Online; Aditya Sharma, Tarush Gupta & Arun Sriram Also Clean Up on Wednesday
October is off to an absolutely insane start in the Indian poker scene! Even with a ton of Indian players making waves at the APT Taipei Poker Classic, the online action back home is absolutely bonkers! PokerBaazi’s ₹25 Crores GTD G.O.A.T. (India’s biggest-ever poker tournament) is in full swing, and massive MTT series are happening on Pocket52 and Junglee Poker. And let’s not forget about the crazy high-stakes MTTs on Natural8 India that have been shaking up the Player of the Year race and dishing out life-changing payouts!
But amidst all this madness, one player stood out on Wednesday night: high-stakes cash game veteran Akash Malik. He is currently in Taipei for the APT Taipei Poker Classic, where he just finished second in the TWD 30,000 Hyper Turbo – High Roller. But instead of taking a break, he hopped online and took down PokerBaazi’s The Pride! This win comes just a week after his runner-up finish in The Pride Lite, and it earned him a massive ₹5.33 Lakhs – his best score of the year and the third-biggest of his career! And as if that wasn’t enough, he also made a final table appearance in the Daily Last Chance, bringing his total winnings for Wednesday to ₹5.93 Lakhs, making him the top scorer of the night.
Malik wasn’t the only one crushing it on PokerBaazi. Tarush Gupta, who won the Adda52 Big Whale last month, finished second in The Pride for ₹3.19 Lakhs and raked in a total of ₹3.47 Lakhs across three deep runs. Aditya Sharma also had a busy and profitable night, adding ₹3.31 Lakhs across nine deep runs, including a win in PokerBaazi’s (7-Max) Afternoon BOOST for ₹53,579 and a third-place finish in The Pride for a career-best ₹2.54 Lakhs.

October is off to an absolutely insane start on PokerBaazi, and the Indian poker community is going bonkers with excitement. With the ₹25 Crores GTD G.O.A.T. (India’s biggest-ever poker tournament) in full swing and last night’s ₹30 Lakhs GTD The Pride delivering some serious fireworks, it’s clear that this month is going to be one for the record books!
One player who’s been absolutely crushing it lately is Akash ‘UtgWithUrMOM’ Malik. This charismatic high-stakes cash game veteran has recently turned his attention to MTTs, and he’s making a serious splash. He’s currently battling it out in Taipei at the APT Taipei Poker Classic 2024, where he just finished second in Event #51: TWD 30,000 Hyper Turbo – High Roller. He was this close to ending his nine-year title drought, but it wasn’t in the cards this time.
But Malik isn’t letting that near miss get him down. He’s back to the online grind and on fire! After finishing second in last week’s The Pride Lite, he returned with a vengeance to take down the ₹30 Lakhs GTD The Pride last night. This is his first online win in almost four months, and it’s a sweet victory after a string of near misses. Since his Daily Last Chance win in June, Malik has made six final tables, proving that he’s been a consistent threat in the online MTT scene.
Last night’s The Pride was an absolute barn burner. Malik battled through a daunting field of 653 entrants (354 unique) in the 8 PM showstopper, firing two bullets and grinding for over eight hours. But his hard work and determination paid off, and he walked away with a whopping ₹5.33 Lakhs – the third-largest online cash of his career and his best score of the year! This is his second PokerBaazi flagship title of the year, showing that he’s a force to be reckoned with both live and online.
Malik also made a final table appearance in PokerBaazi’s Daily Last Chance, bringing his total winnings for the night to an incredible ₹5.93 Lakhs. He’s a proud member of the ‘₹2 Crore Club’ in online earnings and the top scorer for Wednesday!

Online phenom Tarush ‘Busterr’ Gupta also had a fantastic run in The Pride. He’s fresh off a huge win in the Adda52 Big Whale last month and was clearly hungry for more. Gupta finished as the runner-up, taking home ₹3.19 Lakhs after firing five bullets. Even though he missed out on his ninth title of the year, it was still an amazing performance.

What’s even more impressive is that Sharma won his way into The Pride through a ₹575 buy-in satellite, scoring a whopping 442X ROI. He turned that small investment into a personal-best payday, showing just how far a little bit of skill and luck can take you in poker.

Wednesday night was a wild one for Siddhant ‘aajnahiaana’ Singh! This mid-stakes grinder has been on a tear lately, and he just kicked off October with a bang. After a nearly ten-week dry spell without a title (despite some close calls and near misses), he broke the curse by taking down Junglee Poker’s Monday Monster at the start of the week. And he didn’t stop there! Last night, he conquered PokerBaazi’s ₹20 Lakhs GTD WTF for his fifth title on the platform this year!
The competition was fierce in the WTF, with 516 players (935 total entries) all gunning for the top spot. Singh didn’t back down, firing four bullets after three early bustouts to maximize his chances. He battled for a gruelling 7.5 hours, overcoming every obstacle in his path. Ultimately, he was the last player standing in the 7:30 PM flagship event. Thanks to a heads-up deal, Singh walked away with a sweet ₹2.81 Lakhs payday – his first WTF title and his seventh-best score on PokerBaazi this year!

The tournament was a fast and furious affair, lasting under six hours. But Kamnani’s dominant performance earned him a sweet ₹1.70 Lakhs top prize after firing just two bullets. This is his second-best score of the year, and it almost puts him back in the black.

Amit Kaushik’s online stats (excluding Natural8 India, Junglee Poker and Pocket52): Lifetime Winnings: ₹8.29 Crores | Lifetime Profits: ₹2.85 Crores | Titles Won in 2024: #13 | Annual Winnings: ₹1.49 Crores | Annual Profits: ₹45.86 Lakhs
Former IOPC The Crown champion Vaibhav ‘vane_shado’ Temani was also in the mix, hoping to add a Maverick title to his trophy case. He came close but had to settle for second place and a ₹1.67 Lakhs payday. It seems like Temani is having a bit of a tough time closing out tournaments lately, as he also just missed out on winning Pocket52’s Pocket Kings last week.
Vaibhav Temani’s online stats (excluding Natural8 India, Junglee Poker and Pocket52): Lifetime Winnings: ₹7.36 Crores | Lifetime Profits: ₹1.22 Crores | Titles Won in 2024: #3 | Annual Winnings: ₹1.07 Crores

Even though the ₹3,350 buy-in Maverick recorded a slight ₹1.22 Lakhs in overlays, it was still an action-packed tournament. The top 62 players carved up the ₹12.50 Lakhs prize pool, with a min-cash worth ₹6,740. This just shows that the late-night action on Adda52 is always worth staying up for!

October is off to an insane start on Pocket52! The ₹5 Crore GTD October Tournament Series is in full swing, and the 500X Big Win Mania is just around the corner (October 4 to 13). The action is already red hot, and leading the charge on Wednesday was the legendary Mohak ‘Tiltin’ Kapoor!
Kapoor is an absolute beast in the Indian online poker scene. He’s already a member of the elite ‘₹10 Crore Club’ in online winnings, and he’s not even close to being done. After a historic win with the Deccan Aces in the Pocket52 PSL Season 6 (they were the first team ever to win the PSL championship twice!), Kapoor is having a year for the ages. He’s currently ranked #9 in the insanely competitive Player of the Year race and sitting pretty at the top of the TLB leaderboard. And now, to top it all off, he just won his mind-blowing 52nd title (at least) of 2024 (51 titles officially tracked) by crushing Pocket52’s ₹8 Lakhs GTD Pocket Rockets!
Kapoor came into last night’s Pocket Rockets with his game face on. He’s been on a heater lately, winning at least five titles and making a ton of final tables in September alone. He faced a challenging field of 303 players (153 unique) in the 8 PM mid-week showdown, but he wasn’t fazed. After firing four bullets, his relentless aggression and incredible skill earned him the victory and a ₹1.36 Lakhs payday. This win comes on the heels of his impressive third-place finish in Monday’s Pocket Jacks, proving that he’s at the top of his game on Pocket52.
But Kapoor`s mid-week grind didn’t just stop with the title. This guy is a true grinder, and he went on to make deep runs in seven other tournaments last night, including podium finishes in PokerBaazi’s Daily Last Chance, Daily Boost, and Adda52’s Nighttide DST Adda. By the end of the night, he had raked in a grand ₹3.01 Lakhs in total winnings!
Kapoor’s top Wednesday finishes include:
> 1st in Pocket52’s Pocket Rockets for ₹1,36,442
> 3rd in PokerBaazi’s Daily Last Chance for ₹93,389
> 2nd in Adda52’s Nighttide DST Adda for ₹24,304
> 2nd in PokerBaazi’s Daily BOOST for ₹19,170
Mohak Kapoor’s online stats (excluding Natural8 India, Junglee Poker and Pocket52): Lifetime Winnings: ₹10.23 Crores | Lifetime Profits: ₹1.82 Crores | Titles Won in 2024: #51 | Annual Winnings: ₹2.53 Crores | Annual Profits: ₹59.15 Lakhs | Ranked #9 in the 2024 Leaderboard Standings (Total Cashes) | Ranked #1 in the 2024 TLB (Points) Leaderboard Standings | Finished #1 in the 2023 TLB (Points) Leaderboard Standings
While Kapoor was busy dominating the Pocket Rockets, another online grinder, Kritarth ‘Pahaadi’ Pant, was making some noise of his own. Pant, who recently finished second in PokerBaazi’s (6-Max) BSS SPRINT, put on a show in the Pocket Rockets, finishing as the runner-up and taking home ₹95,834. Pant also made a deep run in PokerBaazi’s The Pride, finishing 13th for an extra ₹52,240. All in all, he banked ₹1.48 Lakhs for the day – not a bad way to spend a Wednesday!
Kritarth Pant’s online stats (PokerBaazi, Adda52 and Spartan Poker): Lifetime Winnings: ₹1.90 Crores | Lifetime Profits: ₹45.56 Lakhs | Titles Won in 2024: #4 | Annual Winnings: ₹84.27 Lakhs | Annual Profits: ₹23.50 Lakhs
The Pocket Rockets’ final table was packed with some serious talent. Last week’s Head Shot NL Bounty champion Ashwin ‘John_wick1399’ Vijayvergiya finished third for ₹71,948, and Mayank ‘MasterDevil’ Shekhar took eighth place for ₹21,466.
Even though the ₹2,750 buy-in Pocket Rockets had a slight overlay of ₹75,830, Pocket52 ensured the top 20 finishers got their share of the guaranteed ₹8 Lakhs prize pool. Each pocketed at least ₹10,168 – that’s more than 3.5 times the initial buy-in! Despite the overlay, the tournament was a huge success, with tons of action and exciting payouts for everyone who made the money.
Final Table Results
- Mohak ‘Tiltin’ Kapoor – ₹1,36,442
- Kritarth ‘Pahaadi’ Pant – ₹95,834
