Brazilian tournament is a very good tournament. Regarding the format, i guess it is a unique format in the world. They open brackets from 16 players from Sunday night until friday night and finals are played saturday and sunday.The goal is to have at least 1 place in the final bracket from 32, but u can have as many places as you get. There were players who have 4 places, and enter in QF(ITM), and others who have only 1 place.Tournament pay 8 places Each registration fee is 200 BR Real (around usd 70). Tournament have a not so formal format and schedule (which include lot of chouettes at the beach or pool, stakes between usd5 and usd10 a point), u can be registered in many brackets at same time without making slowly tournament because you have full day to complete your games, and a full week, u dont need to loose before re entering. And if you want, you can buy your place to be in the final bracket, u have to pay for full bracket (16 X 70usd), I dont agree with this, but this way you can consider that the tournament is only the final bracket from 32 players, and the 16-players brackets are just cheap qualifiers. There is a Superjackpot (around 700 usd reg fee) and Dobles Consultation tournament too during the week. There were around 25 argentinian players, 1 player from Austria, and rest of players were Brazilian. The tournament is very well directed by Ian Mac Farlane and i would highly recomend to everybody who wants to have 1 week of sun, beach, good food and drinks, and of course lot of backgammon action.
