“It is with great regret that the BSOP organization was forced to announce the suspension of the stage so as not to jeopardize, mainly, the safety and well-being of the participants, team and players,” says the official statement of the BSOP that also guaranteed that the São Paulo stage, scheduled for March 24th to 29th, remains confirmed.
For poker players from Brasilia the information was received with great sadness. However, those responsible for the BSOP stated that the possibility of a new stage in the Federal District is not ruled out as soon as the situation normalizes and the sanctions imposed by the rulers are discarded.
The organization is already planning a new date for the event, confident that this public health situation should normalize. “As soon as the rules in the Federal District allow the BSOP to be held again, we will announce the stage and all the tournaments that will be played,” they add.
