Paulo Pitrez Wins Last Shot 40K Tournament at FSOP by Candangão


The FSOP by Candangão, a Brazilian poker championship, concluded on December 13, 2023, with a total prize pool of R$ 1 million.

Paulo Pitrez won the Last Shot 40K tournament, securing a prize of R$ 10,000. Pitrez initially sold a stake to play the main event but did not make it to the in-the-money positions. He then decided to participate in the Last Shot 40K tournament, where he played a crucial 3-bet light hand with Q5s, leading to a significant gain in chips.

In the final stages, Pitrez faced a tough decision against a player with QQ and called with AJ, securing his victory. This win marked a remarkable comeback for Pitrez, who had initially given up on the event but returned to claim the championship.

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.
