For the first time in History a Portuguese player reached ITM position in the WSOP Main Event.

Diogo “Segrob” Borges had to go through 3 days of play around 12 hours each, and outlast a field of of almost 7K players to assure a paid place in the last 666.

The 25 year old stands already to make himself a name in poker History, now the sky is the limit. When the bubble burst everyone was happy. Professionals and amateurs alike.
Players give each other five, some embrace, others buy a round of beers and toast one another. Immediately phone calls are being made to loved ones to tell them the good news. Three days of intense play and finally they’ve reached their first goal. It might not be the ultimate goal, but the pressure of getting their buy in back has been lifted.
