What could be a better gift for a rummy player than to participate in a grand tournament and get an opportunity to win big cash prizes? This was exactly what the holiday had in store for the IRC finalist. An incredible 261 finalists participated, generating a prize pool of INR 50 lakhs.

The IRC added a bit of twist to the event with a state theme, grouping the participants in three broad teams; Karnataka Knights, Tamil Titans & Andhra Avengers. With the first prize awarded from Karnataka, all players from Karnataka Knights also received free tickets to the Sankranti Rummy Tournament in January 2019 which boasts a prize pool of INR 1 Crore. The evening was further marked with live performances, gala dinner, and nerve-wracking excitement.
The event had a special celebrity guest, Ms. Mandira Bedi who not only hosted the event but also added to the thrill of rummy, encouraging the players all through. The event opened with the famous drum performance, followed by singing performance by Rupali Kashyap & the dance troupe.
Mr. Ajit S H won the IRC tournament with a prize amount of 10 lakhs. Thimmaraju Madugundu, the first runner-up walked away with 3.5 lakhs while Mr. Surendar Sekar was announced as the second runner-up, with a prize amount of 3 lakhs. The remaining winners of the championship are as under:

India's Rummy Championship is an exposure that gives the feel of online rummy while coming face to face with the best of rummy players from the country. It acts like a bridge blending the rummy experience in both the offline and online world, perfectly. As rightly stated by IRC winner Mr. Ajit S H of Karnataka, "I started playing on RummyCircle about 9 years back. I won Rs. 1000000 in IRC held at the Taj hotel, Bengaluru. I really feel happy and it was an amazing and wonderful experience to win the big final. I won several tournaments and cash prizes on this site. It is the best online Rummy site as it is genuine, transparent, and quick in customer service. The real winner is RummyCircle as an ordinary man can win any amount of money here. Keep up the good services."
One of the aspects that were of most prominence was offering the same gameplay experience as on the RummyCircle website. The game was structured in a way that players would enjoy rummy, just the way they do on the website or app. Further, a scoring software was used to calculate all scores and did away with the possibility of manual error completely.
Adding further, Co-CEO and Co-Founder Bhavin Pandya said, "We believe in offering our players a warm and stimulating environment, where they can interact and meet the top rummy players from India. The RummyCircle team is at the heart of this success, giving the time and effort needed to understand player requirements and thereby focusing on offering better tournaments each time."
