One of the popular overseas festivals run by Indian players is The India Poker Series (TIPS). A creation of Jaydeep Dawer and Manish Goenka, TIPS returned with its third season to Europe’s largest casino, King’s Casino in Rozvadov, Czech Republic for a seven-day long festival. The series will run between 3-10 February 2020 in collaboration with the Spanish Poker Festival (SPF) which wrapped up Day 1A and 1B starting flights.
Day 1A of the Spanish Cup €50,000 GTD (~INR 40 Lakhs) kicked off with 251 entries, each one chipping in €115 (~INR 9,048) buy-in. Around half of the field consisted of Spanish nationals. The field gradually whittled down to only 53 survivors progressing to Day 2. The first three chip leaders in the Spanish Cup Day 1A are all country mates from Spain with the chip leader Antonio Castro accumulating the largest stack of 449,000. He sits above Juan Jose Roldan and Sergio Garcia Pau both bagging 426,000 chips to Day 2.
Indian poker fanatics never leave out a chance to showcase their poker skills but Avneesh Munjal, Dawer and Himanshu Dewan were few players who were less fortunate busting out on Day 1A.
