-- Gabriel “kingqueensuited” Tavares earned $204,657 by winning consecutive Sunday Banana online poker tournaments at Americas Cardroom on Oct. 4 and Oct. 11.
The Brazilian player collected $96,336 in the Oct. 4 event, a $1,050 buy-in tournament with 436 entries and a $436,000 prize pool. On Oct. 11, he topped 502 entries to win $108,321 from a $502,000 prize pool.
“When you play high stakes, consistency is very important, and winning tournaments like that is very important,” Tavares said in an Americas Cardroom interview.
Tavares previously won the $10 Million GTD NLH Venom in April 2025, overcoming 3,735 entries. He has also qualified for Day 2 of the current $5 Million GTD NLH Venom PKO with 4,248,891 chips, the second-largest qualifying stack from Day 1A on Oct. 4.
