MPalermo and Escalera Crowned Champions in Major Poker Tournaments


In a thrilling weekend of poker, two major tournaments took place on Sunday, both hosted on the UPoker app and organized by the Liga Online H2 Brasil. The 100K tournament and the Super Omaha 50K attracted a large number of players, each with substantial prize pools.

MPalermo Wins 100K Tournament

MPalermo emerged victorious in the 100K tournament, defeating Favarus in a intense heads-up battle. The tournament, which had a buy-in, rebuy, and add-on of R$100,00, attracted over 1,000 players by the end of the late registration period. MPalermo's win earned him a prize of R$25,500. Toirox secured the third place position.

Escalera Triumphs in Super Omaha 50K

In the Super Omaha 50K tournament, Escalera clinched the title by defeating Krakovia in the heads-up. Escalera's victory was particularly notable as he overcame a disadvantage in the heads-up to secure his win. His prize for the victory was R$16,758. Krakovia, who was the champion of the previous day's 1 million guaranteed tournament, earned R$10,174 for his second-place finish. Ugaeidjamds took home R$6,344 for his third-place finish.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
