The Brazilian Series of Poker continues its supersized stop in São Paulo with the second half of its Super High Roller Series schedule.
The first three events went down earlier week, where Martin Kabrhel mounted a memorable comeback to beat Ottomar Ladva in the $30,000 Super High Roller on November 18. The other two winners were high roller tournament regulars Joao Simao and Mehdi Chaoui, the former taking down the $10K SHR Invitational at the beginning of the special series and Chaoui winning the $20,000 SHR right after that.
Ladva's revenge
Two more winners are now in the books as the livestreamed series rolls on, starting with the $50,000 Super High Roller running over two days on Wednesday and Thursday. Meanwhile, Ladva found revenge after losing a massive lead to Kabrhel earlier in the week, winning the one-day $20,000 SHR on Thursday over a field of 58 entries.
Ladva beat Rodrigo Selouan in heads-up play in the very early hours of Friday, cutting a final two deal before they flipped for the trophy. The simple flip proved to be much better luck for Ladva than a 15-to-1 chip lead and he grabbed $351,000 for his 14 hours of troubles.
Brazil vs. Brazil
Elsewhere, Felipe Boianovsky bounced back from the final table short stack to win $640,000 in the $50,000 Super High Roller. Boianovsky started Day 2 as the chip leader, but early final table trouble put him at the bottom of the leaderboard. A rush of cards put him back on top before he beat fellow Brazilian Leandro Zavodini in heads-up play.
The two-day tourney drew 40 players and paid the top six, which also included Vladimir Minko, Ruben Lopes, Leonardo Rizzo, and Pedro Padilha.
Two more big-dollar tournaments await. The $100,000 Super High Roller Main Event, which is already underway, and the $6,000 BSOP Championship from Nov. 22-29. Day 1 of the $100K drew 24 players, with 17 in the bag for tomorrow's Day 2. Registration remains open until it starts. The $6,000 BSOP Championship will start on Saturday with four opening flights until Nov. 25. It carries a $400,000 guarantee and the winner will take home at least $800,000.
Tune in all week long through the end for 14 days of livestreams on the brand new BSOP English channel, hosted by Jeff Gross, Brian Rast, and Maria Ho.
