Not just football. Neymar takes part in two poker tournaments

Neymar took part in the 2026 FIFA World Cup and did not have the most successful campaign, but football is not his only passion.

Details: According to geglobo, the striker played in two poker tournaments but was eliminated from both. After being knocked out of the first tournament, he immediately registered for another event with a buy-in of around €1,600.

However, he was eventually eliminated by a player who went on to win the title and collect approximately €39,000.

Meanwhile, Santos forward Neymar has responded to the wave of criticism that erupted after he took part in a poker tournament during his holiday. The Brazilian was previously criticised for missing the team's matches at the Copa América in Venezuela.

Reminder: Brazil were eliminated in the Round of 16 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and legendary former midfielder Kaká shared his thoughts on the team's performance at the tournament.
