India’s first medal poker championship, the National Poker Series (NPS) has announced the dates for its 2022 edition. This year, the prestigious poker series will include even more events than its first edition with 84 tournaments. National Poker Series 2022 will begin on 6th March 2022 and is slated to run for 15 days till 20th March. The series will be hosted on PokerBaazi, one of India’s leading online poker platforms.
During its launch back in June 2021, NPS became known as the ‘Olympics of Indian Poker’ since it was the first poker series where gold, silver, and bronze medals were awarded to the top three players of each event. Last year, the NPS podium finishers were Mohammad Azhar (Gold Medal), Ankit Wadhawan (Silver Medal), and Kritagya Sharma (Bronze Medal). Azhar also went on to win a ticket to one of the biggest poker events held in Las Vegas.
