Wednesday Roundup: Vivek Singh, Amrit Mishra, Vineet Kumar win

One would think it could get really boring in the middle of the week but we can’t say the same for poker players as there’s always something or the other on offer. Spartan Poker had Destiny last night while AOPS is still running strong on Adda52 while a couple of other leading websites are running micro-stakes series for the heavy grinders in the industry. Read for more updates on last night’s online poker action…

Destiny INR 30 Lakh GTD

It’s not the first time he’s won a feature on Spartan Poker and it’s probably not going to be the last either. We’re talking about Vivek Singh aka ‘KasolHieghts’ who took down Destiny last night and walked away with a pretty handsome prize while also booking himself a place in the Destiny Finale SNG. The guarantee was slightly beaten and after an 8-hour grind, Singh outlast ‘Wazza92’ in heads-up to take home the title. Phanindra Akkina finished 3rd while Kanishka Samant ended in 5th place.
