Ramos Reaping the Benefits

Felipe Ramos is a local from here in São Paulo, and he's taken it upon himself to show us a good time in his city. "Mojave" was one of the ones responsible for a late night out in Vila Madalena this time yesterday.

Good things happen when you show the poker media a good time.

Ramos has been biding his time admirably today, picking his spots and making mostly good decisions, it appears. A moment ago, his chip stack received a big boost when he and an opponent built a pot of more than 50,000 going to the river. On the last card of the wet, king-high board, Ramos shoved in, and his opponent tank-folded with some reservation.

Ramos is closing in on the century mark now; we eyeball him at about 96,000 as he stacks up that pot.
