We started working with Simão Gomes on August 26th, 2025. From the very beginning, he struggled to follow the limits established in the contract and he was also very difficult to deal with. At one point, Simão told us he had problems controlling his own behavior saying: “Do you know why I came here?
Main reason?
I’m a tournament specialist but a total degenerate in other games.
I ordered all of this to be blocked.
The cash can’t be blocked, so I was going to gamble for the ACR all-in or fold.
Or play 200/400 PLO hi-lo in the rathole.
I’m a degenerate.” Simão Gomes started displaying compulsive behavior working with us as well, rarely if ever taking breaks and losing nearly every day in the very short period he worked with us. After he requested a reload, we asked him to take a day or two off to make sure he didn’t burn out and to just reset and we would reload him after the break. He’d been playing for 2+ weeks without a single day off at that point. He unilaterally decided that this request was unacceptable and gave us an ultimatum of reloading him within 30 minutes or he’d terminate the deal (which he can’t do with active makeup, without also buying out his makeup). We did not reload him and after a few days he sent back all the funds he was holding onto, but refused to buy out his makeup. We concur with Simão Gomes characterization of himself as a “degenerate” and would advise others against working with him. Simão Gomes owes us makeup of $6.2k
