We’re halfway through the year and the leaderboard for the GGMasters Player of the Year race now has some structure to it. It’s the same name at the top of the standings, that of Ricardo “M@cacaCidado” Nascimento, but the Brazilian faces some serious heat from the chasing pack.
It appears being from Brazil gives you an advantage in the race for the $500,000 GGPoker sponsorship package because six of the current top 20 players hail from the land of samba. The aforementioned Nascimento is still the man to catch but his 1,903.
