Thus, the initial mechanics of the promotion remain the same. Players receive coupons for every hour of participation at the cash game tables and compete in daily draws held at 8:30 PM and 2:30 AM. To continue in the contest, the drawn player just needs to be at a table at the time of the call.
However, the main novelty appears in the decisive phase of the promotion. Previously, the player needed to win an all-in against the so-called “vault security” to earn the right to open the prize. Now, the confrontation will take place between two drawn players, which increases the number of participants involved in the action.
Additionally, the new format ensures that a competitor always has the opportunity to open the vault. If they find an envelope, the winner can exchange it for the chance to enter a password in the Safe and compete for the grand prize of R$ 500,000.

BSOP Winter will have 24-hour cash game and 60 tournaments
Thus, the organization expects to increase both the number of winners and the attempts to win the promotion’s biggest prize. As a reference, during the BSOP Millions 2025, Everardo Castelo, known as “Cabelinho”, cracked the password of the Safe and took home the prize of R$ 1,000,000.
With that, BSOP Winter 2026 will take place from July 21 to 30, at the Golden Hall of WTC Sheraton, in São Paulo. Besides the cash game available 24 hours during the event, the stage will bring together players from different regions of the country.
Finally, the schedule will feature 60 tournaments, with buy-ins ranging from R$ 500 to R$ 100,000. Thus, the festival will offer options for different competitor profiles, while the Mystery Cash promises to be one of the main side attractions of the stage.
