Rui “RuiNF” Ferreira on his Player of the Year SCOOP Performance
Level 41
: 350,000/700,000, 87,500 ante
Throughout the Spring Championship of Online Poker 2020, one particular screen name cropped up more than most on the daily results sheet. That name? “RuiNF”. The player? Portugal’s Rui Ferreira.
While he couldn’t quite clinch a SCOOP title in 2020, Ferreira had so many close calls (nine final tables) and cashes (more than 100!) that he would ultimately be crowned the SCOOP 2020 Player of the Year.
In doing so, he banked a beautiful bonus of $50,000.
The Portuguese grinder spoke with the PokerStars Blog a few weeks after the series and provided insight on his run and some amazing advice on how to crush big tournaments.
