Manish Lakhotia is crushing it in live as well as online poker! On July 6, he became the first player from Team India to win a title at the ongoing APT Vietnam in Ho Chi Minh, after besting a strong field of 79 runners in the VND 8,800,000 (INR 25,857) buy-in NLH Single-Day event to claim his first live title and VND 166,510,000 (INR 4.89 Lac) along with an APT trophy. Later on 7th July, the talented player participated in Adda52’s 25 Lac GTD Mega Suits and went on to win that event as well.
In Mega Suits, Lakhotia aka ‘newkidpoker’ outlasted a field of 521 entries to claim his first Mega Suits victory for an impressive INR 6,25,200 in top prize. To claim his win in this event, he outlasted strong FT that had good regs in ‘buntai’ (9th for INR 39,075), Nitin Arora (7th for INR 65,125), ‘selffish’ (6th for INR 91,175), ‘ankitjain09’ (4th for INR 1,95,375) and Irshad Chaudhary (3rd for INR 2,47,475). Eventually, he reached heads-up with Vikas Yadav aka ‘Vikas267’ who played well but could not go all the way, eventually finishing runner-up in the event to take home a cool INR 3,64,700.
The total field of the tournament generated over INR 26 Lac in prizepool and it was shared by the top 49 players. Some notable regs to finish deep in this event were Sajja Barnwall (10th for INR 32,563), Rohit Kumar(12th for INR 26,050) and Sikandar Rajwade who finished 16th for INR 22,143.
Lakhotia’s journey on adda52.com has been impressive so far. The player has made plenty of deep runs across almost all popular tournaments, including Godfather, Whale, Mega Suits, Adda52 Millions and other big events. He had started the year 2019 by winning Adda52 Millions in January and now he has added one more win to his online resume by shipping his first Mega Suits last night.
