Commenting on the cancellation or the postponement of the DPT Xpress March 2020 edition, Manish J. Adnani, the Business Head of Poker at Delta Corp Ltd, said, “Unfortunate that the world is facing a crisis currently with the COVID-19 virus. We were optimistic to roll out the second edition of the DPT X, which has a fantastic start to the series. It’s important to stay safe at these times, and postponing the event is in line with ‘Social Distancing,’ which is has been prescribed as our first line of defense. I hope the situation improves, and the world comes back to normalcy sooner than later.”

As per the reports, Goa Casinos have been closed but there is no dearth of action on the virtual felts in the country. Poker players can take part in online tournaments happening every day on the major Indian platforms. Those looking to win big at normal buy-ins can take part in the ongoing Adda52 Online Poker Series (AOPS), which will be concluding on 15th March. Good luck at the online felts!
