PokerStars Title

KSOP online poker South America Title
In 2026, Eli captured his first KSOP online poker trophy by winning the Mega KO event (R$2,000 buy-in) at the KSOP online poker South America series in Puerto Iguazú, Argentina. He defeated 104 entrants and took home R$30,000, including R$7,000 in bounties. After the win, he remarked: "Segunda vez que eu venho jogar o KSOP online poker. Logo no começo, já levar um troféu de campeão, é só alegria."
Stadium Series Runner-Up

Eli is known for his aggressive and adaptable style. In the KSOP Mega KO, he described being short-stacked for most of the tournament before building up to 40 big blinds and then dominating his opponents. His decision to refuse a three-handed deal to continue chasing the trophy reflects a competitive, winner-take-all mentality.
