Casino games are prohibited in Brazil. Poker, either land-based or online, is unregulated in Brazil as it is considered a game of skill and, therefore, falls outside of the scope of Decree-Law No. 3,688/1941 (the Misdemeanour Criminal Act of 1941  MCA). No specific regulation applies.

In December 2024, the Brazilian Senate finally passed its gambling regulations for sports betting and online casinos. What took so long? Until this week, there had been no enforceable or documented Brazilian gambling regulations due to a blanket ban on gambling in the country since the 1940s.

The Clssico dos Milhes (English: Derby of Millions) is the name given to Flamengo and Vasco da Gama association football derby, both teams from the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Considered as one of the most fiercely contested derbies in Brazilian football, both in historic rivalry and in popularity.

Flamengo fans, known as rubro-negros  (red and black), are known for their unconditional faith in the team. Flamengo's supporters are one of the largest and loudest in Brazil, and the Maracan, the historic stadium located in Rio de Janeiro, is their home.
