Flashback: Marcos Kenne Wins 2024 BSOP Millions Championship
Level 6
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Last year’s BSOP Millions series was the largest poker festival ever held in Latin America. The biggest prize was the R$25,000 BSOP Millions Championship as 503 players built a prize pool of R$11,081,150 and a first prize of R$2,140,000.
Marcos Kenne led wire-to-wire on his way to defeating Paulo Goncalves heads-up to take home the biggest prize of his poker career.
“Man, I’ve been trying for a long time to win a big title like this to see if I could dedicate more time to the game. I have another job and other responsibilities. But I kept coming close, and it just didn’t happen. I said, ‘God has the right moment for everything.’ And it happened now,” Kenne said following his victory.
