POKER HISTORY MADE! Brazilian Wins $224K GGMillion WHILE Playing WSOP Paradise Super Main Event!
Gustavo Silva Campos Wins GGMillion$ – GGMillion$ Season 2025 Episode 44
The latest GGMillion$ final took place on GGPoker at the exact same time as the live version was playing down from the first deal to the last card in The Bahamas. That’s because there were not one but two GGMillion$ this week. This is where you can read all about the online winner, but if you want to find out who won the latest WSOP Paradise bracelet, you can do so here.
On GGPoker, nine terrific players battled to a finish and a top prize of $223,824 as legends of the online felt, including Duco Haven, Christopher Rudolph, and Bruno Volkmann fought for glory.
Pre-Match Betting Odds
When play got underway at the final table, there were 10 previous GGMillion$ titles amongst the nine finalists, as well as over $85 million in winnings on GGPoker. The chip leader was the Brazilian player Gustavo Silva Campos, who piled up 74 big blinds and was short odds of 5.18 to win despite playing from The Bahamas in the $25,000-entry Super Main Event at the same time!
Behind Campos, the Dutch player Duco Haven and Bulgarian Boris Angelov were both on 51 big blinds, with Haven available at 5.3 and slightly shorter odds than Angelov on 5.96. Colombian ‘GREAGYPoker’ sat on 50 bigs at longer odds of 6.38 due to the experience of the other players, such as Haven, who seemed to have the best chance amongst the chasing pack, which is why we chose him as our favorite for the week.
The rest of the field, all experienced players, needed routes back into contention. German player Christopher Rudolph (40BB) was at odds of 7.2, while French hopeful Jérémie Zouari had the same stack but was longer odds at 10.2 in the GGPoker client. Austrian Caspar Engelien had 33 big blinds at 9.62, with Swedish player Sven Andersson at 15.62 despite having a playable stack of 20 bigs. The Brazilian player Bruno Volkmann began at odds of 95.56 due to having just two big blinds to his name.
Key Moments from the Felt
Volkmann was a lock to bust first, and sure enough, the experienced South American couldn’t climb up the canvas. All-in with ace-deuce on the third hand, he lost to Duco Haven’s queen-seven when both players paired their lower card, crashing out for $30,969. The eighth-place exit came as a shock, as the middle pin of the nine who started crashed out for $39,655. Germany’s Chris Rudolph lost the last of his starting stack (1:25:30), shoving pre-flop for 14 bigs with pocket nines, losing to Andersson’s ace-jack. An ace on the flop did the damage as Rudolph was unable to improve.
Soon, the field was trimmed to half a dozen when Austria’s Caspar Engelien busted, bluffing away his chips with just five-eight on a board showing J-T-4-6-2 as Haven once again made a good call, holding ten-nine for second pair. After the Austrian cashed for $50,778 in seventh, Swedish pro Sven Andersson departed for $65,020 in sixth as Campos enjoyed a massive moment of fortune (1:44:50). All-in with ace-king, Andersson lost to Campos’ ace-queen when a queen fell on the turn. Had he lost that hand, Campos would have been left with less than 15 big blinds, but having won the pot, he leapt to second in chips and was in a spot with a genuine chance of victory.
Boris Angelov busted in fifth place for $83,257 when the last two blinds belonging to him went in with nine-seven of clubs. Losing to Haven’s ace-jack, the Dutch player once again acted as executioner as four remained. Shortly after Angelov was out, the table was down three, as the French player Jérémie Zouari crashed out for $106,608. All-in with ace-seven, the ace-king of ‘GREAGYPoker’ was good enough to knock Zouari from the tournament. The hot run continued as the same player busted Duco Haven for $136,509 in third (2:44:20) when a big coinflip went the Lithuanian’s way.
Heads-up began with the Campos behind a little. The chips went back and forth for a bit, until the Brazilian was able to win himself a pot to grab the lead when he hero-called on the river of a nine-high board with top pair. Into nearly a 3:1 lead, Campos ran out of timebank due to his efforts in The Bahamas. He eventually shoved with five-deuce of spades with a 9:1 lead. ‘GREAGYPoker’ made the call with queen-nine. A deuce on the A-A-2 flop gave Campos the lead, and after a ten of diamonds on the turn gave him a flush draw, it came in on the cruellest card of all, the nine of diamonds on the river, to give ‘GREAGYPoker’ a bigger pair, but not enough to beat the runner-runner flush.
This Week’s GGMillion$ Results – December 9th, 2025
Gustavo Silva Campos became the first poker player to win on two live streams at the same time in poker history by cashing in the Super Main Event at the same time as he won this week’s GGMillion$. Taking home over $223,000 for victory, the Brazilian led from the start of the final table and closed it out at its dramatic conclusion as both Jeff Gross and co-commentator Bryan Paris were full of praise for the latest champion.
“What a story, this guy is deep into the Bahamas, fighting for $10m live!”
“If I was ‘GREAGYPoker’, I would have played a much slower style, to take advantage of him having no timebank. GREAGY went pedal to the metal. I learned a lot as I always do.”
The champion himself was delighted to have made poker history on Paradise Island.
“I’m very happy and proud,” said Gustavo to Jeff Platt on the floor in The Bahamas at Atlantis Resort. “I’m focused on the live event now; I made Day 4. Another game, another focus!”
Here are all the winners from this week’s online GGMillion$:

Did GREAGY Throw Away the Crown?
With a full timebank compared to his opponent, the Lithuanian may have cashed for $174,797 as runner-up, but he blew the chance to win $223,824 up top. It created history and gave us the first double-streamed winner of the GGMillion$, but was it a win fueled by that mistake? Well, we don’t think so. While Campos had no timebank forcing him to make quick decisions, slowing down might have afforded him more time to employ a more strategic approach to the heads-up match.
If there was one player who was unlucky not to win bigger this week, it was the Dutchman Duco Haven. Using all his experience to take out multiple opponents, his elimination merely meant that he had done a lot of the heavy lifting for the eventual winner. Haven was unlucky to lose a big flip at the end, but in truth, it was the period before that all-in and call that cost him.
