: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Day 1d of the Brazilian Series of Poker (BSOP) R$30,000 ($6,000 US) Championship was glory’s last shot, the final chance for players to jump in and pursue the largest guaranteed prize pool in Latin American poker history.
A total of 278 players did just that, packing the WTC Sheraton in Sao Paulo today for the fourth and final starting flight. Just 101 survived to play on to Day 2, led by Frederico Nizzato with 920,000.
Nizzato, a physicist by trade, has just two recorded live cashes on his poker resume, both from nearly a decade ago. He’s more accomplished online, where he won a WCOOP title on PokerStars in September.

| 1 | Frederico Nizzato | Brazil | 920,000 | 153 |
| 2 | Dante Goya | Brazil | 815,000 | 136 |
| 3 | Daria Krashennikova | Russia | 726,000 | 121 |
| 4 | Edmilson Silva | Brazil | 673,000 | 112 |
| 5 | Olivio Gontijo | Brazil | 658,000 | 110 |
| 6 | Getulio Majela | Brazil | 655,000 | 109 |
| 7 | Marcelo Bernardino | Brazil | 622,000 | 104 |
| 8 | Francisco Tarciso | Brazil | 583,000 | 97 |
| 9 | Luis Kamei | Brazil | 543,000 | 91 |
| 10 | Vitor Dzivielevski | Brazil | 518,000 | 86 |
Right behind him is Dante Goya, the 2023 WSOP Paradise bracelet winner who bagged up 815,000 for second place on the leaderboard. Daria Krashennikova took down the biggest pot of the day, her straight and nut flush draw holding up against Felipe Derci’s top set to double up as she vaulted all the way up to 726,000 at the end of the night. Edmilson Silva (673,000) and Olivio Gontijo (658,000) round out the top five.
Other players to advance include Vitor Dzivielevski (518,000), Ruben Lopes (515,000), Arthur Thiriart (450,000), Masato Yokosawa (322,000), and Ori Hasson (289,000).
Further down the leaderboard are 2023 EPT Barcelona runner-up Joao Sydenstricker (268,000) and Andres Korn (257,000). Martin Romero won the BSOP Main Event title yesterday for R$1,221,805 ($245,000 US), but he’ll have his work cut out for him if he wants to add a second trophy, as he’ll return with just 74,000.
Among those whose tournament came to an early end today were Benny Glaser, Rafael Moraes, two-time WSOP bracelet winner Antonio Galiana, as well as defending champion Marcos Kenne and last year's runner-up Paulo Goncalves.
The 278 entries on Day 1d brought the total field up to 714 by the time late registration ended. Just 246 return for Day 2 tomorrow at 2 p.m. local time. The action picks up on Level 11 with blinds of 3,000/6,000 and a 6,000 big blind ante. Levels increase to 90 minutes from Day 2 onwards. The official list of payouts should be announced shortly after the start of play.
It was a crowded field that sought the R$20,000,000 ($4,000,000 US) guaranteed prize pool today, but it was just the start of a long journey onwards to the crowning of a champion. The money bubble awaits at some point tomorrow, so stay tuned as PokerNews returns to provide all the action.

Stay tuned for chip counts and a recap of the day's action.
Level 10
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Lucas Rigos bet 11,500 from the big blind on a board of 9♦10♥3♣2♣ and Ori Hasson called in the hijack, as did Kevin Houghton in the small blind.
The river was the K♠ and action checked to Hasson, who bet 42,500. Houghton called, while Rigos got out of the way.
Hasson turned over A♥K♥ for a rivered pair of kings, and Houghton also flashed the K♦ as he tossed it into the muck.

Tournament officials announced that Day 1d will end after each table completes five more hands.
Level 10
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Paula Moreira in the small blind and Diones Lopes in the hijack saw a flop of A♣3♣Q♦, where Moreira got her last 156,000 in the middle.
Paula Moreira: 3♦3♥ 
Diones Lopes: A♦Q♠
Lopes had flopped top two pair, but Moreira had spiked a straight and was poised for the double up. Lopes needed to improve to a full house, but he missed the 8♠ turn and 8♥ river, and Moreira scooped the late-night double.

Level 10
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Around 200,000 was already in the pot as three players went to the turn on a board of 3♠4♠J♣2♥. Daria Krashennikova then bet 125,000 from the big blind, and Felipe Derci moved all in from under the gun.
An opponent on the button folded, but Krashnnikova snap-called for 290,000. Derci showed J♦J♠ for top set, but Krashnnikova had A♠5♠ for a straight and nut flush draw.
Krashnnikova needed to avoid the board pairing to earn the massive double up, and she dodged the 9♣ river as she vaulted up among the chip leaders near the end of the night.
