Vasu Bansal is the new champion in town. Bansal claimed the coveted title of Deltin Poker Tournament (DPT) July 2023 to make his name go down in history.
Bansal chopped the pot with runner-up Krishna Khaitan, who was the chip leader when the FT began. Both players agreed on a deal to take home an equal ₹40 Lakh, however, they continued playing for the title, trophy and an additional ₹14 Lakh. Eventually, it was Bansal who emerged victorious.
Bansal entered the FT with a mid-stack of the fifth-highest chips (19, 40,000) and managed to make his way to the top. The final hand saw Khaitan jam 400K with A ♣ 3 ♦ , while Vasu called with J ♦ 5 ♦ . The board fanned out 3 ♣ Q ♦ J ♣ 8 ♦ 8 ♠ giving Vasu his two-pairs for the win.
Bansal walks gloriously with the DPT July 2023 Main Event champion title, the shiny new trophy and a hefty top prize of ₹53.76 Lakh. Meanwhile, Khaitan takes the runner-up spot for ₹40 Lakh.
Talking about his victory, Bansal said, “It feels surreal to be the champion of the 14th edition of DPT 2023. Finally, lifting the coveted title of DPT 2023 is like a reward for all the time and hard work I’ve put into the game. All thanks to Adda52 for organizing such poker events for us.
