The Final Table Series (FTS) 5.0 finally concluded last night amidst much fireworks and high-octane action. The series which began on 27th October drew its curtains yesterday with the conclusion of the Main Event. The ₹2 Crore GTD event was shipped by well-known pro Sajal Gupta.

The Main Event witnessed two starting flights Day 1A and Day 1B, leading to Day 2. A total of 86 entries qualified for Day 2, out of which the top 79 places cashed a min-cash of ₹70,284. The advertised guarantee of the event was crushed as the final prize pool stood at ₹2,06,72,000. 

The heads-up saw Gupta aka ‘GoMuckYourself’ battle it out with Armaan Kochhar aka ‘space ace’ for the top spot. Eventually, Gupta claimed the title and added ₹39,66,956 for his top finish. Kochhar, on the other hand, pocketed ₹24,88,908 for his second-place finish.

Gupta has previously won the Adda52 Millions title in September 2018, where he cashed ₹6,00,000.
