On the heels of a firecracker Sunday on adda52.com, the action on Monday slowed down a little in terms of guarantees and number of players. The biggest tournament to take place yesterday on India’s no. 1 poker site was the 10 Lac GTD Inception that drew a field of 403 entries and generated INR 12.89 Lac prize pool. After several hours of intense fights, the field eventually came down to heads-up where Mithun ’themiths’ Mahesh clashed with ‘donk2degen’. In the end, the latter emerged victorious to bank INR 3.19 Lac, while Mahesh settled for INR 1.93 Lac for his deep run.
Other notables ending their run on the FT of the marquee tourney were the in-form Ashish Ahuja (3rd for INR 1.35 Lac), Anuj Yadav (8th for INR 29,016) and Pranav Khandalkar (9th for INR 20634).
Top 43 finishers were paid out in the last night’s Inception with a min-cash of INR 7093. Siddarth Singhvi (12th), Full House winner Chirag Sodha (14th), Gagandeep Malik (19th), Rubin Labroo (20th), recent Holdem High winner Gokul Raj (22nd), Arsh Grover (25th), Deepak Raina (29th), Deepak Singh (31st), and Ritesh Tripathi (42nd) were the notables who made ITM finishes in the tourney.
