Nikita Luther Finishes 16th At ESPT Barcelona Main Event


India’s only female World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner Nikita Luther has successfully unlocked another achievement in her poker career. The Spartan Poker pro who is currently in Barcelona to grind at the European Poker Tour (EPT) 2022 Barcelona.

After an impressive deep run in the event, Luther finished at the 16th spot at the €1,100 Estrellas Poker Tour (ESPT) Main Event, which was a part of the PokerStars EPT 2022 schedule. She bagged €27,930 (approximately ₹22,82,458) for her 16th place finish.

In her final hand, which was a double elimination, Bulgaria’s Ivan Zhechev bet 5,300,000 chips from the early position, with only 50,000 chips left in hand. Ukraine-based player Renat Bohdanov called the bet from the hijack and was followed by Luther making an all-in call with her 4,750,000 chips from the big blind.

The board fanned out 8 4 4 on the flop, and Zhechev check-called his remaining stack. Luther flipped Fish Hooks, Zhechev showed A Q , and Bohdanov showed Cowboys. The turn and river did no good and Luther, the last woman standing, was eliminated at the 16th spot for her shorter stack, while Zhechev finished 15th for a sum of €32,120.
