Simao was one of 103 entrants in the $2,100 buy-in POWERFEST #32-H: $200K Gtd Turbo NL Hold’em event. Our Brazilian hero actually bust early in the event, but took full advantage of the re-entry format to walk away with another POWERFEST title.
The top 16 finishers received prize money for their efforts. A min-cash weighed in at $4,120 with a final table appearance upping that sum to $6,695. This is the prize awarded to “PhileasFogg” who has himself been reaching POWERFEST final tables for fun.
Also at the final table as “rdcrsnn” who has three POWERFEST titles to his name this series and Dusk Till Dawn owner Robert “Rob_Yong_” Yong who our Chairman Mike Sexton spoke so favourably about earlier this month.
But shining the brightest was Mr Simao who banked the $50,470 top prize after defeating “SchelampigaUhu” heads-up.

While Simao was busy adding another online poker title to his already impressive resume, his Team partypoker team mate Anatoly “NL_Profit” Filatov was falling just short of his second POWERFEST victory in less than a week.
Filatov was the last Team partypoker player member in the POWERFEST #31-H: $150K Gtd NL Hold’em after Simao bust in 32nd place, just inside the money. Filatov navigated his way through to the eight-handed final table before seeing his tournament come to an abrupt end in third-place, a finish worth $24,370.
Congratulations to “probirs” who won the $47,100 top prize and his second POWERFEST gong in the space of a few days.
