Naresh Rathnam Denies Anmol Mehta Godfather Win; Ashish Ahuja Ships Hexagram!

The most prominent tourney taking place on adda52.com yesterday, the 25 Lac GTD Godfather returned for its Thursday run and pulled in an impressive field with a total of 735 entries, easily surpassing its specified guarantee and generating a prizepool of INR 36.75 Lac, which was eventually shared by top 82 finishers. Banking the lion’s share was online regular Naresh Rathnam aka ‘FireExit’ who outlasted a well-known reg in Anmol Mehta aka ‘anzzzzz’ (2nd for INR 4.85 Lac) heads-up to collect INR 8.45 Lac.

2.5 Lac GTD Hexagram

Another key event yesterday was Adda52’s Hexagram tourney with INR 2200 buy-in. As usual, the daily tourney fared pretty well, drawing 185 entries and generating INR 3.70 Lac prizepool, which eventually got distributed among the top 19 finishers. Coming out on top of the field was the in-form Ashish Ahuja who has been displaying amazing form of late.
