After a few jitters here and there during heads-up against Anand Thakur, Abhishek Paul has shipped the DPT Nov 2022 Main Event for a whopping sum of ₹55,13,434. The runner-up played passively for a good part of the final table, shifted gears and took charge and made it to heads-up. Thakur impressed many with his play and some amazing acting skills which truly deserve an oscar as per the commentators. He takes home a pay cheque of ₹33,73,849.
This hand changed the deal for Anand Thakur who made good use of his acting skills and take the chip lead away from his rival.
This hand that left onlookers confused. Abhishek Paul took down the pot just because his rival Anand Mohan Singh Thakur showed only one card (Ace) which would have been a chop pot if the latter had revealed his other hole card. The Tournament Director stepped in after a hand was played post this confusion and made sure the matter was resolved.
Abhishek Paul is the new chip lead with 9.4 million chips.
With ATs IOPC Jan 2021 Main Event champ went all-in and Pranav Bagai calls with AJo. The board read T J J 2 6 and that was end game for Singh. He takes a pay cheque of ₹14,52,589 for his 5th place finish.
Archit Khandelwal after being card dead for most of the duration, chose to go all-in with pocket tens and Pranav Bagai with pocket queens makes the call. The board did not run in the favour of Khandelwal and is eliminated in the 6th spot for ₹11,14,913.
Abhishek Paul is playing a good game so far and the proof of that is his current chip lead position. Paul snatched the chip lead away from former IOPC Main Event champ Laksh Pal Singh.
In a hand that Pranav Bagai went all-in with an A7o made sure he flaunted his Ace card as everyone else folded on the table and Bagai ended grabbing some free money.
Roopak Garbhe who was chip lead at the end of Day 1A flight has busted at the 8th spot for a sum of ₹5,50,179.

After busting Kunal Patni a while ago, Neel Joshi (Cowboys) was left with 5K at his disposal when it was an auto all-in for him from the small blind position. Dheeraj Bairineni (Qd ♦ Jh ❤ ) raised to 100K from the button position which made everyone else on the table fold. The hand was down to Bairineni and Joshi. The board revealed 2 ♣ 6 ❤ 9 ♠ J ♦ Q ❤ and Bairineni hit two pairs (QQ, JJ). Sadly for the young gun Joshi, it was game over.

Khandelwal snapcalled and both the players flipped their respective cards. The board presented 4 ❤ K ♦ A ♦ T ♣ 9 ♦ which gave Khandelwal an Ace-pair and Ahuja the direction to the exit route.
