Akshay Nasa Marks Birthday with Sunday SuperStack Celebration
Hail the Poker Phenom: Akshay Nasa's Recent Reign
A name that's been making waves in the poker world, Akshay Nasa, alias 'sherlock52', is the man to keep an eye on! His 24th birthday bash this year wasn't just a celebration, but also a chance to rake in some serious dough in poker tournaments, both live and online.
Yesterday, during his routine grind, he decided to add a substantial chunk to his poker bankroll by snatching a couple of titles from various websites. The ball got rolling with The Spartan Poker'sSunday SuperStack tournament, which commenced at 7:30pm IST and boasted a guaranteed prize pool of INR 20 lakh. The tournament drew a whopping 513 entries, beating the guarantee and swelling the prize pool to a staggering INR 25.65 lakh.
Nasa rang in his birthday with a bang by claiming the tournament and pocketing the mouth-watering first-place prize of INR 6,66,900. He bested 'omgrachelgreen', a player who's been on a winning spree on Spartan lately, in heads-up. Despite 'omgrachelgreen’s' hot streak, he had to settle for INR 4,10,400 for his second-place finish.
A total of 50 players walked away with a minimum cash prize of INR 12,825, and it was a grueling field to get past. In the final hand, 'omgrachelgreen’ went all-in with 5s Qh, but Nasa's pockets Queens proved to be the winning hand (with Kings and Queens) that denied 'omgrachelgreen' another title.
Nasa has been on a tear in poker, with recent highlights like a second-place finish in the APPT National and winning the Millionaire and a Destiny tournament on Spartan. After his latest victory, he shared his thoughts: "The tournament was high up on the swing meter. Luckily, I managed to bag the chip lead right before the final table, and a crucial 3-way all-in with QQ against AQ and AK on the final table gave me an invincible chip lead. It was a breeze from there on. Plus, it was my birthday yesterday, so winning felt over-the-moon."
Nasa also clinched the BSS MegaStack tournament on PokerBaazi yesterday, wrapping up an incredible day for him. Stay tuned to ourwebsite.com for the latest updates on top poker tournaments in India.
