IPRT Casino Pride Dec 2009 Tourneys Report

Goa - Dec 2009 Casino Pride IPRT Tourneys Report

Dec 09 events went quite well and we had a lot of new players join us.
There were two stars of the show.

1. Sangamesh P (Bangalore) who won the IPRT Casino Pride Cup and became the first IPRT Hall Famer. He will be on the up-coming exclusive IPRT website – India Poker Hall of Fame. Sateesh A (Hyderabad) was the first runner-up and Phil S (Goa) was the 2nd runner-up.
Congratulations everybody!..great game.

2. Anil G (Mumbai) who played excellent poker and won two tourneys back to back . Anil G is an experienced poker player and he showed his full form, talent and skills at the Dec IPRT tourneys. Indeed it was a pleasure watching his game. Anil G has played IPRT tourneys from the beginning and has won prizepools earlier too. He is also on IPRT Galleria.
Anil G….you really showed us some nice poker…!

Other encouraging signs were three lady players Asha D (Goa), Manju S (Mumbai) and Simone B (Germany) who participated in these tourneys. Manju S also came into the prizepool share in one of the tourney. IPRT thanks all the three ladies for their wonderful effort and great play. IPRT looks forward to seeing them and more women players joining this sport.

Kaushik M (MxxDs), IPRT National Leaderboard top ranked and Nov 09 National Leaderboard winner, joined us too this time. Thanks MxxDs for coming.
Though we have been following MxxDs’ tight tactical game on IPRT freerolls online CelebPoker, it was the first time we saw him play real life.
