The virtual tables of ACR Poker have been hosting valuable contests in recent days. And just like in other rooms, Brazilians are making a strong presence, taking advantage of the chances to cash in. The standout on this Monday (31) was the professional Alexandre Mantovani, who won the US$ 1,050 Venom Special High Roller.

The US$ 1,050 buy-in competition had US$ 750 thousand guaranteed, but by registering a field of 800 entries, it reached a prize pool of US$ 800 thousand. With his traditional nickname “Cavalito”, Alexandre Mantovani defeated all opponents, pocketing US$ 146,866 for the title. He made a deal in the heads-up with “RUCosmonaut”, and the runner-up took US$ 131,631.
This contest was included in the ACR Poker schedule because the site is experiencing another moment of The Venom. The traditional event holds its penultimate round this Tuesday (1st), with Brazilians still alive. With 47 players remaining out of 4,792 entries, Ivan Limeira, Pedro Cavalieri, and Edílson Júnior remain in the fight.

In the US$ 630 Venom Special, two players from the country reached five figures: Pedro Padilha “PeDeAnjo7” earned US$ 23,750 by finishing second, and “justfknhold” took US$ 11,693 in sixth place.
