Delhi-based online skill-based gaming startup 9stacks announced that it has successfully closed a Series A round of funding after raising $3.84Mn (INR 28 Cr) led by WaterBridge Ventures. Astarc Ventures and other existing investors also participated in the round.

9stacks plans to use the funding to expand its team and to further build its technology platform. The proceeds will be used to ramp up user acquisition, data analytics, machine learning, and product and market expansion.

9stacks was founded in 2017 by Sudhir Kamath, Pratik Kumar, Abhinav Nigam, Rishab Mathur. It is a real-money skill-gaming platform focused on technology development and branding/marketing in the space of real money online gaming in India.

The platform is mainly aimed at online poker where users can learn and play the game online and also earn money. It currently offers its online poker gaming services in 24 Indian states. It also includes companies offering rummy and fantasy league contests, other than poker.

Update (as on October 1, 2018 3:23PM):

The story earlier said that 9stacks has raised $1.5 Mn and it has now been corrected to $3.84 Mn in Series A funding. Inc42 regrets the error.

The feature comes amidst social distancing and stay-at-home orders enforced in most parts of the world in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, leading to a surge in interest in private poker clubs and home games online.

9stacks, India's fastest growing online poker platform, has raised 28 crore in a Series A Funding Round led by WaterBridge Ventures and the startup's existing pool of investors. This is the first Series A raised by any Indian online poker company.

Started by IIT & IIM alums Sudhir Kamath, Pratik Kumar, Abhinav Nigam and Rishab Mathur in 2017, 9stacks was started with the ambition to provide an authentic, transparent and simple online poker experience, which would make poker a fun sport for everyone.

"With Waterbridge Ventures becoming the lead investor in our Series A fund raise, we are delighted to announce that 9stacks is India's first online poker company to reach this funding milestone. This is a great sign of confidence in the 9stacks team, the systems and processes we've put in place, in addition to the rapidly growing market itself. We will use these funds to ramp up user acquisition, data analytics, machine learning, and product & market expansion. We want 9stacks to be the preferred platform for poker in India, especially for new players, where anyone can discover, learn and play poker, any time, anywhere," said Sudhir Kamath, CEO, 9stacks.

Recently, 9stacks took 25 of its users to Las Vegas for the 2018 World Series of Poker. '9stacks Team India' came out with flying colors, with two players finishing in the top 100 of the main event; the best ever finish by any Indian.

Companies like Dream 11, Ace2Three and RummyCircle have previously raised institutional investment rounds for other segments (daily fantasy sports/online rummy) of the rapidly growing Real Money Gaming market in India. 9stacks now becomes the first Indian online poker company to raise an institutional Series A round.

Launched last year, 9stacks has a user base of 1 lakh+ subscribers. More than 30 lakh hands of poker are being played every month on the platform, with monthly gross transactions exceeding INR 35 crores approximately.

As a member of the All India Gaming Federation, 9stacks has also been a strong voice advocating poker as a game of skill. On its own platform, 9stacks recently launched India's first skills dashboard where gamers can carry out in depth analyses of their own strategy, and become better players.

NEW DELHI, Sept. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Prof. Deepak Dhayanithy from the Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode, who formulated an elective course called 'Competitive Strategy: The game of poker' or CSP as it is commonly called, and has been teaching it for six years spoke to 9stacks recently. "I feel satisfied when I teach this course. Managers are professional decision-makers and poker is a great mental sport to teach them the skills of decision-making. I am happy to bring the two together," he says.

In an interview with 9stacks, one of India's fastest growing online poker platforms, Prof. Dhayanithy explains how the course came about. As a strategy faculty member in IIM-K, he is constantly on the prowl to devise courses that enhance probabilistic and psychological analytic skills of his students and the poker course originated from the same thought process. "Most people think with the certainty of hindsight that business is very deterministic. But it is not. The challenges in business strategies are in a constant flux, and the managers have to constantly adapt to the changes happening in the world. Poker is a great way to teach probabilistic decision-making. It may be new in India, but courses on poker strategies have been being offered in Harvard, MIT and other universities across the USA. And these courses teach approaches that are relevant in a variety of business settings, ranging from stock markets to vendor negotiations to capital investment decisions under uncertainty - and even extend to normal real-life decision making," he expressed.

He himself was introduced to card games when he was a child and used to actively participate in the family sport. Being a sports buff, he was fully convinced of poker through ESPN. ESPN late night programming included poker telecast. Intrigued by the skill and strategy used by professional poker players, he started playing poker and he liked it. Being a poker player himself, Prof. Dhayanithy is very pleased that the course has proven popular and effective. Before every class, he plays a tournament and spends time studying about poker strategies, so that he can teach the class.

Talking about the elective course, Prof. Dhayanithy says, "From about 60 students in its first year of inception, CSP is now sought by over 200 students. An almost equal batch proportion of boys and girls opt for the elective in their 2nd year. Most girls in the class are as competitive as the boys," Most students enjoy the classes which include playing tournaments, discussions, participating in live sessions and understanding business parallels as well as the business of poker itself. However, about 20 percent of the students still think of it as taboo. He tells them to not change their beliefs and experience poker for what it is. They still attend the elective classes," he smiles.

While poker has gained respectability abroad, it is still frowned upon and disapproved by many parents in India. However, with the advent of many online poker sites, Prof. Dhayanithy thinks this is improving. When asked if he faces any issues with the parents of his students, he laughs and says "My students introduce me to their parents during convocation as their poker professor. All I do is say Namaste and try to get off the topic as soon as possible." For the budding poker industry in the country, he says the best way to protect the game and help in destigmatizing the name is to promote brand ambassadors - poker players who carve successful careers for themselves. Further, they are well-spoken, free-thinking, intelligent and hard-working - characteristics that would resonate with the larger audience.

On the occasion of Diwali, 9stacks has also launched a promotion like never before where users can get a chance to win unlimited prizes like OnePlus Nord phone, Gaming chair, Alexa, Redmi phones, etc starting 8th November till 18th November for users playing at 5/10 and 10/25 stakes. This promotion has been named Diwali Blast.

Founded in April 2017 by Sudhir, 9stacks develops games like Poker, Fantasy League, Rummy, etc. for multiple people to play for real money. It currently offers online real-money poker to customers in 24 Indian states, who can access its modern and secure poker platform on 9stacks, and on iOS, Android, MacOS, and Windows native apps.

According to a report by Flurry Analytics, India is the 2nd country after US in terms of online mobile gaming. Again, according to Google KPMG report published in May 2017, the online gaming industry in India across platforms is estimated to reach $1 billion by 2021, with 310 million gamers. The data is enough to indicate Indian's love for online games. And this love will grow further with companies like 9stacks, which are not only letting the gamers play but also earn.

Sudhir Kamath, Co-Founder & CEO is an IIM-A alumnus and ex-McKinsey consultant with over 17 years of experience. Prior to 9stacks, he was CEO of Suntera Energy, a privately held oil and gas exploration company. e24fc04721
