Jagdeep Singh At The Event

Jagdeep Singh was one of three Indian contenders in action. Singh is one of India’s most accomplished Pot-Limit Omaha players who has several scores in both domestic and International PLO events to his name.

These include winning the INR 15K Pot Limit Omaha 6-Max at the 2017 DOT February Edition for INR 5.80 Lakhs, a 3rd place finish in the £330 Pot Limit Omaha 6-Max Double Chance at the 2016 WPT National UK PartyPoker, Nottingham for £2,300 (~₹2.09 Lakhs) and a 9th place finish in Event #64 – $1,500 No Limit Hold’em/Pot Limit Omaha – 8 Handed at the 48th WSOP for a career-best $20,181 (~₹14.03 Lakhs).

Singh had the 10th largest stack once Day 2 began. He almost made it to Day 3, but was, unfortunately, one of the last ones to be eliminated. Singh finished in 20th place in the Main Event for €10,677 (~₹8.37 Lakhs).
