Still, he was able to reach the 3-handed stage to secure the remarkable result. At the moment when Rotondo was already dominating the action, Costa tried to double up with 99 and even saw a good showdown, as the Argentine called and showed KQs. However, Rotondo hit the top pair right on the flop, and no other help came to the Brazilian.

This was the main Brazilian result in this stage of the Enjoy Poker Tour, but right at the start of the stop, the green and yellow flag had already stood out in another, less robust parallel event. In the US$ 400 PKO, Otávio Fedrigo won, pocketing a total of US$ 17,600 for the achievement.
