Monday Roundup: Rahul Kumar, Siddhanth Kapoor win titles


Sunday witnessed a dearth of events and the guarantees sky high! After a smashing start to the week, Monday paled in comparison, knocking with smaller prize money. Yet the poker fanatics took their seats to excel and walk out, bagging their hard-earned money. Headlining the online roster was Spartan Poker’s ReCharge INR 10 Lakhs GTD followed by PokerBaazi’s The Bout, once again, ensuring INR 10 Lakhs. So, let’s take a quick tour of Monday majors…

ReCharge

With the commencement of working week, Spartan Poker’s ReCharge INR 10 Lakhs GTD attracted a pretty good field of 517 entries for a buy-in of INR 2,200. The guarantee was passed to create a bigger prize pool of INR 10.34 Lakhs, and the top 47 competitors benefitted from the same. But it was circuit reg Rahul Kumar aka ‘sttoned’ who had his eyes on the lion’s portion of the same. Kumar seized the winner’s prize money after railing out his opponent ‘gogobhai’ in heads-up.
