Criticized for simulate faults at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, Neymar competed in a poker tournament and finished in sixth place out of 288 competitors in a Brazilian Series of Poker event.
The Brazilian, who fell in the World Cup against Belgium 2-1 in the quarterfinals, converted his entry of $ 1,877 in a profit of 21 thousand 308 before being eliminated in the High Roller final, organizers said.
"I am very happy to play in this tournament for the first time and to reach the final with great players," said the Paris Saint-Germain star moments before the final began. "This is a new experience for me."
Ney entered the tournament with five of his friends and was the only one who managed to pass the second day.
The final table was scheduled on Tuesday night, but the participants agreed to postpone a day for the attacker to attend a friend's wedding.
He returned to compete on Wednesday, but after four hours of play he was eliminated after betting heavily on two hands he lost.
Poker has become a relaxation game for Brazilian soccer players.
