Laksh Pal Singh wins SSS Day 2 Head Hunter; 3 others win


This month’s Spartan Super Series (SSS) began on 10th April and will end on 14th. The 5-day festival is studded with marquee events like The Elite INR 50 Lakhs GTD and the Main Event INR 75 Lakhs GTD. Yesterday, Day 2 of the series was hosted and saw ‘illegal9’ winning two tournaments who also currently ranks 2nd in the Leaderboard. Another Spartan Poker regular ‘JasonBourne’ won the biggest event of the day. Here’s a round-up of what happened:

SSS #9 – Head Hunter INR 12 Lakhs GTD

The novel Head Hunter tournament made its appearance yesterday. The tournament had a Bounty format, which meant that out of the total INR 5,500 buy-in, INR 1,000 went to each player’s starting bounty. And as the players earned eliminations, half the bounty on the victim would figure in the eliminator’s bounty and the other half would figure in the bounty prize pool.

Last night, Head Hunter began at 7.30 pm and was in the books by 2.39 am today morning on Spartan. The community was so enthusiastic about this one that the 365 total entries crushed the guarantee by a good margin of INR 2.6 Lakhs. The top 31 places were paid out of this prize pool and conquering the title and the first-place cash prize was community regular Laksh Pal Singh aka ‘LuckyBhai$’ who took home INR 3,62,227 (including INR 53,437 bounty).

Singh beat another known community entity Gaurav Sood aka ‘mozzie17’ in heads-up. The fateful hand happened with Singh owning over 2:1 chip lead. Singh had Js Qs and raised all-in before the flop and Sood called with As 9h. The board revealed 9c 8d Qh 5h Tc and gave Singh an Eight to Queen straight, which beat Sood’s Nines easily. Sood settled for INR 2,07,904 as the runner-up prize money.

Singh is already a good player in the live and online circuit of India. Among his recent achievements include Spartan SuperStack title which he won last month. He will look forward to using this money in upcoming range of tournaments and earn more.

SSS #7 – INR 2 Lakhs GTD

This was the first tournament of the day and attracted a total of 203 players to the felts for INR 550 buy-in. Topping the field and earning INR 47,693 as first-place cash prize was ‘THEDONKKID’ who beat ‘instacash’ in heads-up. The min-cash for the tournament was set at INR 1,984 and a total of 31 places were paid out of this.

SSS #8 – INR 3.25 Lakhs GTD

The tournament was 2nd in the list of offerings on the day and drew in a total of 159 unique players to the felts. ‘illegal9’ won this one for INR 68,737 and earned his first out of 2 total titles he would win on the day.
