In 2024, I won the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event, taking home a prize of US$ 8 million. 🌜 This win was a dream come true for me, and it catapulted me to the top of the poker world. 🌜 I have since won a total of 1 bracelet and 0 rings, with earnings of R$13,161,049.
When I first moved to 🌜 Florianópolis, I struggled to find my place. I was a stranger in a new country, and I didn't speak the 🌜 language fluently. But I refused to let that stop me. I knew that if I worked hard and stayed focused, 🌜 I could achieve my goals.
To succeed in poker, you need more than just skill. You also need mental toughness and 🌜 the ability to make smart decisions under pressure. I have worked hard to develop these qualities, and they have served 🌜 me well in my career.
One of the biggest challenges I faced when I first started playing poker professionally was managing 🌜 my bankroll. It's easy to get caught up in the excitement of the game and make reckless decisions, but I 🌜 quickly learned the importance of staying disciplined. I set strict limits for myself and never risked more than I could 🌜 afford to lose.
Another challenge I faced was dealing with the ups and downs of the game. Poker is a game 🌜 of luck, and there are going to be times when you lose, even if you're playing perfectly. I had to 🌜 learn to take these losses in stride and not let them get me down. Instead, I used them as opportunities 🌜 to learn and improve my game.
