Thursday Roundup: Akshay Nasa takes down Summit on PokerBaazi


It was thundering Thursday that saw the guarantees spiking! With weekends just two days away, the online felts displayed explosive actions last night. Headlining the list of major flagship tournaments was Spartan Poker’s Ultron that guaranteed an enormous INR 25 Lakhs! Ignited and kindled by some of the top pros of the country, here is a complete summary of Thursday majors…

Ultron

Spartan Poker hosted Ultron INR 25 Lakhs GTD that went on for 7 plus hours, registering 545 entries for a buy-in of INR 4,400. Eventually, before the tournament concluded, the top players received a slice from the prize pool, but the one to take away the largest chunk was an anonymous player ‘BobbyAxelrod1’ who defeated online reg Ayush Garg aka ‘Lazyman’ in heads-up to seal the title and capture the enormous prize money.

  • Total Entries – 545
  • Prize Pool – INR 25,00,000

In level 49 of the tournament, ‘BobbyAxelrod1’ with As Jd had 8 million chips up against Garg with 9h 5d who had 2 million chips. Pre-flop saw the latter shove and got a call from the former. The board ran Qh 5c Qd Jh Ac and Garg’s pair of Queens and Fives couldn’t stand against the anonymous player’s pair of Aces and Queens, thus ‘BobbyAxelrod1’ strengthened his poker bankroll.
