The 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) is heating up in Las Vegas with seven bracelets already awarded. Meanwhile, India’s online poker felts are witnessing their own set of fireworks. From massive wins to career-best scores, this past week was packed with several insane moments for online poker.
While we saw several epic performances, the one that stole the show came from Anant Purohit, who collected a staggering INR 71.91 Lakhs on Natural8 India, making him the top scorer of the week. Here is a quick recap of key highlights and moments that lit up the virtual felts this past week.
Anant Purohit – INR 71.91 Lakhs
Anant Prohit is one of the most consistent MTT crushers in India and he continues to showcase this through massive online poker scores every week.

This marks his second biggest score of 2025, pushing his overall online winnings to nearly INR 5 Crore. He now trails current POY leader Tarun Goyal by just 15%, thus setting the stage for an intense leaderboard race.
