Biography

Ankit Ahuja is an Indian poker player with over $2.1 million in live tournament earnings as of October 2023.

A former tech consultant who worked for PokerStars, Ahuja took down the $1,100 Eureka Main Event at 2023 European Poker Tour Cyprus for a career-best $362,365.

“I think this is the best win,” he said after the victory. “I mean, every win is very special … You know, the more you know, you get better, you learn things. So I felt like this was just special. I didn’t have a lot of the big trophies of the PokerStars events.”

Dutchman Michel Molenaar is the latest poker player to become a PartyPoker LIVE champion, having taken down the 3,000 buy-in Irish Poker Festival MILLIONS Main Event in Dublin for an impressive 210,000 payday.

It has been quite the year for the young Dutch star. Molenaar won the 5,300 Super High Roller at the PokerStars Summer Festival Malta for 53,440 in July 2023, was the runner-up in the 5,300 Hydra Entertainment High Roller at PartyPoker LIVE MILLIONS Malta for 49,632 in September, and now has his hands on a career-best score in Ireland.

India’s Ankit Ahuja recently decided to focus on fixing his mental leaks in poker, and his work has paid off in spades. Just weeks ago, Ahuja finished fifth in the Estrellas Main Event in Barcelona, and now he’s bested that by taking down the $1,100 Eureka Main Event at PokerStars European Poker Tour Cyprus for a career-best $362,365.

“It was tough, but that’s bound to happen in any tournament,” Ahuja told PokerNews after the victory. “These were hands where I couldn’t have done anything, so I didn’t make any mistakes (in the hands). I was just okay with it. And still, I was glad that I had so many chips that even after I lost those hands, I still had 100 bags after that.”
