<p>O Global Poker Awards divulgou, no início dessa semana, <a href="https:\/\/superpoker.com.br/poker/global-poker-awards-coroa-os-melhores-do-poker-2018-bonomo-cynn-e-veldhuis-vencem/">o resultado de seus prêmios para a temporada 2018</a>. Até o ano passado, o prêmio era separado em American Poker Awards e European Poker Awards. O ano de 2019 marcou a junção de ambos sob o pretexto de globalizar a festa, mas parece que nem todo mundo recebeu o convite.</p>

<p>O jornalista argentino Brian Saslavchik levantou o debate no Twitter após a divulgação dos 137 nomes que fizeram parte do painel que selecionou os nomeados. O “hermano” questionou a baixa representação de pessoas do poker latino-americano.</p>

<p>“Dos 137 membros do painel, há zero da América Latina (descontando o Brasil, que tem apenas dois sendo um dos maiores mercados do mundo”, escreveu Brian. “Como isso pode ser um prêmio global?”. Os brasileiros citados são o jogador Felipe Mojave e o jornalista Sérgio Prado, do PokerStars.</p>

<p>O comentário recebeu resposta de Eric Danis, presidente do GPI (Global Poker Index), empresa responsável por organizar o evento. O canadense admitiu o problema. “Eu concordo que mais votantes da América Latina e da Ásia são necessários, e nos esforçaremos para adicionar mais no ano que vem. Saiba que mais do que duas pessoas receberam cédulas de votação e que trabalhamos com alguns dos melhores na América Latina para garantir que a região fosse bem representada entre os indicados”.</p>
<p>Brian agradeceu a resposta, mas voltou a questionar os critérios utilizados. “Eu tenho dúvidas sobre o esforço em fazer a América Latina ser parte disso (os números são minhas evidências). Eu não entendo como incluir mais um jogador americano de torneios high stakes (entre dezenas) é melhor do que um igualmente qualificado jogador/pessoa da mídia latino-americana”.</p>
