WCOOP 2020: Matheus ‘MathCamillo1’ Camillo Rides Out The Storm, Wins #15-M
There were just five players left near the end of Day 2 of Event #15-M of the 2020 World Championship of Online Poker at PokerStars, a $55+R no-limit hold’em eight-handed tournament.
Brazilian player Matheus “MathCamillo1” Camillo had enjoyed a great couple of days of poker to that point. He had built a big stack on Day 1, made it to the final table bubble on Day 2 where he won a big all-in, and was fifth in chips to start the FT.
A little while after that there were just five left out of 5,450 total entries (including re-entries). And coincidentally, Camillo was down to just five big blinds.
“I was just folding and hoping to find a favorable situation,” explains Camillo. “But the favorable situation never came.”
