Felipe Boianovsky began the day as chip leader, but it wasn’t a smooth ride for the local superstar on Day 2 of the Brazilian Series of Poker (BSOP) Super High Roller Series R$250,000 ($50,000 US) Super High Roller.
Boianovsky fell to a short stack at the start of the final table. Then he doubled up back in contention. Then he was short once again before finding a few more double ups. The cards continued to swing in his favor until Boianovsky ended up as the champion, taking home the title and R$3,200,000 ($640,000 US) first prize.
