Daily Majors: Anant Purohit, Prashanth Sekar, Deepak Singh & Guruprasad Gupta Shine in the Monday Flagships

The aftermath of Adda52`s 15 Crores GTD AOPS – Goa Edition online finale might have made Monday seem quiet, but across PokerBaazi, Adda52, Natural8 India, and A23 Poker, poker pros and relative newcomers set the felt ablaze! And just to put those wins in perspective, Pocket52’s Super Savings League kicks off today, promising six more days of high-value battles.

But on Natural8 India, “big wins” almost feels like an understatement. ‘ANNAATTHE’ made headlines with a staggering ₹36.97 Lakhs payday from a fourth-place finish in the Lunar Mystery Bounty. Then, hot on their heels, ‘borntrouble‘ delivered a double-whammy of knockout power. They didn’t just win Natural8’s Bounty Hunters HR 525 for a stunning ₹32.43 Lakhs but followed it up with a close second in the APL Series PLO-NL Bounty for another ₹1.40 Lakhs. That’s a combined haul of ₹33.83 Lakhs!

Meanwhile, Anant Purohit shattered his 2024 title drought on PokerBaazi, conquering The Big Show for ₹1.99 Lakhs, while the runner-up ‘Nutsplayer’ bagged a personal best 1.45 Lakhs.

Adding more fuel to the fire, Prashanth Sekar snagged his second major win of 2024 in Adda52`s Iron Man, adding ₹1.52 Lakhs to his day`s total of ₹1.56 Lakhs. Thirupathi Reddy Palpunoori, following his January AOPS Nebula victory, landed in second place with 1.11 Lakhs.

Not to be outdone, Spartan Poker’s Money Hunt – PKO saw Deepak Singh rise to the top after his AOPS Sunlight runner-up finish this weekend, bagging ₹95,837 with knockout bounties included. He even squeezed in two other deep runs to bring his total to ₹1.14 Lakhs. Siddharth Gangwar kept his exceptional streak going, locking in 85,993 in second place – one of FIVE deep runs totalling nearly ₹1.99 Lakhs across various sites!

Guruprasad Gupta joined the victory lap, winning PokerBaazi’s The Big Show Lite after three long months without a title. A heads-up deal secured him ₹76,287. Last week`s (7-Max) Daily SPRINT runner-up ‘madmax123’ took second place again for 72,619, totalling ₹76,619 from two deep runs.

Monday also saw familiar faces continuing their hot streaks. Amar Iyer carried his Sunday Special momentum on PokerStars India, besting the Eliminator for ₹74,324, his third title on the platform in 2024. ‘smokijoejr’ (anonymity requested) secured second place for 50,260, amassing almost ₹59,000 for the day.

PokerBaazi`s marquees saw victories by ‘johnimsong’ (Won (7-Max) Daily SPRINT for 81,000), ‘Champ1987’ (Won (7-Max) Afternoon Boost for 76,000), Manav Gehe (Won (7-Max) Daily SPRINT for 73,000), and Nikhil Aneja (Won (7-Max) Midnight SPRINT for 66,240).

Over at Junglee Poker, ‘rockybhi007‘ clinched the Money Magnet title for ₹1 Lakh, while Pocket52 saw ‘GAME_PLAY‘ dominate the Pocket Jacks for ₹46,433.

Sk. Safiulla and Sumit Silwal also carved their names on the Monday winner`s list.

But while Tiakumzuk celebrated, another warrior clawed their way to the top. ‘Poker4everz’ refused to yield! While it took three bullets to reach the final table, they ultimately took home a neat ₹75,571 for second place after the same deal – proving tenacity pays off on PokerBaazi.

The (7-Max) Daily SPRINT’s final table was stacked with familiar names like Aditya ‘addyb’ Bahl (3rd for ₹48,236), and Rohit ‘rohit22rm’ Mishra (4th for ₹36,671) fighting ferociously for the title.

But the spotlight wasn’t only on Gupta. ‘madmax123’ – fresh off a runner-up finish in last week’s (7-Max) Daily SPRINT – was determined to claim the gold. While they secured ₹72,619 from The Big Show Lite deal and added a further ₹4,000 from a 27th-place finish in the (7-Max) Daily SPRINT for a total of ₹76,619, that second-place finish must sting after coming so close!

The Big Show Lite’s final table buzzed with potential upsets. Madhur ‘LiTOnyx’ Sandal (3rd for ₹45,954), Friday’s (7-Max) Daily SPRINT finalist Arjun ‘arr86’ Raghani (4th for ₹34,910), Archit ‘RareAbility’ Saraogi (7th for ₹13,653) and Tushar ‘thepokerdream’ Oswal (8th for ₹11,100) all made their presence felt. Yet, only Gupta found the path to that champion’s spot.

The ₹1,725 buy-in The Big Show Lite drew a crowd hungry for big payouts, generating a lucrative ₹5.55 Lakhs prize pool. The advertised ₹5 Lakhs guarantee was handily beaten with payouts galore for the top 77 finishers.

It wasn’t just Gehe’s night to shine. Poker streamer Tejas ‘sajet69’ Anantha – always a hot hand after recent strong results like a final table finish in the AOPS Wednesday Feature and last week’s Daily Morning SPRINT win – joined him in the spotlight. While the heads-up deal meant settling for second, Anantha secured a sweet ₹67,053!

The poker tables were ablaze this Friday, and leading the charge was none other than Debneil ‘ChhotaDon’ Mukherjee (opted out of our tracking). Mukherjee’s exceptional performance in two of the day’s biggest attractions led to him amassing a staggering ₹8.08 Lakhs in total winnings, making him the night’s highest earner.

One of these two stellar finishes saw Mukherjee championing Spartan Poker’s ₹15 Lakhs GTD The Elite. Competing against a formidable field of 179 entries (89 unique), he showcased his skills over a gruelling seven hours and 23 minutes, eventually emerging victorious. This win in the 8 PM headliner added ₹4.50 Lakhs to his stunning Friday tally!

However, this victory was more than just a win; it was a sweet redemption for Mukherjee. About an hour earlier, he narrowly missed the top spot in PokerBaazi’s ₹30 Lakhs GTD PBC#10 Weekly HighRoller. He faced off against the formidable Young Gun Anmol Mehta in a nail-biting final showdown. Despite a hard-fought battle, Mukherjee finished in second place, pocketing a substantial ₹3.58 Lakhs, while Mehta clinched his second win in this event, taking home ₹4.85 Lakhs.

The spotlight also shone on Kovid ‘Fzzzyyy’ Saraswat, who came close to grabbing The Elite title. Saraswat, still riding high from his Wednesday win in PBC#6 Endeavour, finished second in The Elite, adding ₹3.04 Lakhs to his kitty. His Friday earnings further swelled to ₹3.18 Lakhs, thanks to additional deep runs in PokerBaazi’s WTF (56th for ₹9,917) and PokerStars India’s The Big Bash – Ticket Drop Edition (30th for ₹3,683).

Daily Majors: Mohit Mehta, Anant Purohit, Anmol Narang & JaiKiran Kumar Rocked the Monday Flagships!

As the festive season approaches, the online poker arena is gearing up for a series of exciting events. PokerBaazi is running this year’s last shot to fame, the multi-flight ₹5 Crores GTD EndBoss 7.0 and is set to kick off the PokerBaazi Classics, an eight-day MTT festival starting this Sunday. MPL Poker is keeping players engaged with its largest yet ₹1.50 Crores GTD Steal Deal Series, catering to low-to-mid-stake players.

Starting tomorrow, PokerStars India is preparing to launch its Boosted Guarantees Carnival, offering a prize pool of over ₹85 Lakhs. Pocket52 has also joined the festive fervour, celebrating its 5th anniversary with special promotions for cash game and tournament players.

Predictably, this Monday saw relatively modest tournament guarantees and turnouts, with most tournament regulars either participating in the 2023 APT Hanoi Billions in Vietnam or taking a break.

Mohit Mehta stood out as Monday’s top performer, winning PokerBaazi’s The Big Show and taking home ₹2.04 Lakhs following a heads-up deal with another seasoned pro, Anant Purohit, who secured ₹1.90 Lakhs in second place.

Anmol Narang broke his four-month title drought by winning Adda52’s Iron Man, earning ₹1.52 Lakhs. ‘Zoca’ claimed the second spot, amassing ₹1.11 Lakhs, contributing to their overall earnings of ₹1.60 Lakhs from three final table finishes on Adda52.

Sashank Chakravarthy also had a night to remember on Spartan Poker, ending a month’s wait with a win in the Hitman – PKO, bagging ₹1.20 Lakhs. The runner-up, ‘Super-Max,’ also had an impressive performance, earning ₹64,044.

Bharath Kumar clinched the top spot in PokerBaazi’s brand-new The Big Show Lite, pocketing ₹1.01 Lakhs and totalling ₹1.09 Lakhs from three deep runs. JaiKiran Kumar, making our Daily Majors cover for the second consecutive Monday, earned ₹1.48 Lakhs from three notable final table finishes, with the highlight being a runner-up finish in The Big Show Lite for ₹76,817.

Actor-model and poker enthusiast Samay Singh Modi also had a successful day, accumulating ₹1.21 Lakhs across five cash finishes, including two final table appearances, with his win in Pocket52’s Pocket Jacks standing out, earning him ₹77,393.

Lavesh Meena continued his dominant run this December by conquering PokerStars India’s Eliminator – Ticket Drop Edition, winning the title for ₹70,831 and marking his fifth win in this event. His total earnings for the day touched ₹80,489. Adwait Pol finished in a commendable second place, pocketing ₹46,558.

Other notable winners on PokerBaazi included Karan Dhir in the (7-Max) Afternoon Boost (₹70,906) and Karan Sitlani in the 7-Max Daily SPRINT (₹68,378).

In MPL Poker’s Steal Deal Series, ‘trainedgto_bot’ led the Monday action, winning the Steal Deal #16 Monday Madness and taking home ₹1.28 Lakhs.
