Due to a 21-day nation-wide lockdown, most people are staying at home. This has resulted in a substantial rise in online poker traffic, especially on India’s no. 1 poker site – adda52.com. All marque events on the platform have been crushing their respective guarantees. The Thursday flagship event – 25 Lac GTD Godfather wrapped up with a roaring success, drawing a total of 757 entries and finally resulting in INR 37.85 Lac prizepool shared by top 82 finishes. The largest share eventually went to a notable online reg in Abhishek Gubba aka ‘messi010010’ who banked INR 8.70 Lac for his win.
Gubba is no stranger to winning big on adda52.com. In fact, the talented player has already won several big events, including Final Table, and a couple of Big Slick tourneys. Last night, he added one more win to his growing poker resume by taking down Adda52’s Godfather for INR 8.70 Lac.
Total Entries – 757
Total Prizepool – INR 37.85 Lac
Places Paid – 82
Min-Cash – INR 10,977
Gubba outlasted a tough final table that featured big names like Ashish Munot (runner-up for INR 4,99,620), last night’s Hexagram winner Karan Radia (3rd for INR 3,40,650), Sreekanth Narayan (5th for INR 1,79,788), Avneesh Munjal (6th for INR 1,24,527), Sahil Mahboobani (7th for INR 94,625), Ankit Wadhawan (8th for INR 71,915) and Pranay Chawla who eventually finished 9th for INR 56,775.
Other notables who made ITM finishes were Gaurav Sood (10th), Aditya Agarwal (12th), Chirag Sodha (13th), Rubin Labroo (15th), ‘bhai_on_mary_jane’ (21st), Ankur Sehgal (22nd), Sagar Choudhury (23rd), Zarvan Tumboli (24th), Laksh Pal Singh (25th), Naresh Rathnam (26th), and the list goes on.
2.5 Lac GTD Hexagram
Another high-value event to conclude last night on adda52.com was the 2.5 Lac GTD featuring INR 2200 buy-in. As expected, the event easily surpassed its specified guarantee, pulling in 221 entries and resulting in INR 4.42 Lac prizepool, which got distributed among 24 places. In the end, it was once again Karan Radia aka ‘Reg_Slayer’ who emerged victorious to pocket INR 1.20 Lac. This was Karan’s second Hexagram win this week, and last night he defeated ‘Floppednuts’ in the heads-up.
