Seat 7: Fernando Araujo, Brazil (PokerStars Qualifier) – 860,000
Fernando Araujo is a 26-year-old professional poker player from Florianopolis, Brazil. Araujo grew up playing poker with a close group of friends and is now an online pro, and a six-year veteran of the game. This, his first event, Araujo says his greatest influence has been fellow Brazilian pro Thiago Pessotti, who goes by “GUITOSBR” on . Should he reach the heads-up portion of Sunday’s final table, Araujo would most like to be sitting across from fellow Brazilian Felipe Pasini.
