Samuel Mullur
A monumental pot at the final table saw Samuel Mullur vault into the chip lead after a massive preflop showdown against Or Nezer. With seven players left and every chip carrying immense value, this hand could change the course of the tournament.
Hand 37 Mullur raised to 400,000 from the hijack, and Nezer three-bet the button to 1,100,000. Once the blinds folded, Mullur responded with a four-bet to 2,600,000. Nezer used a time bank before deciding to shove, and Mullur snap-called for his stack of over 7,000,000.
Samuel Mullur: A A
Or Nezer: A 4
Nezer had picked his spot but ran straight into Mullur’s pocket rockets. The 7 Q K flop left him with only a few backdoor outs, and the J on the turn eliminated any hope of winning the pot outright. A ten could still force a chop, but instead, the 2 landed on the river, securing Mullur the huge double-up and the chip lead.
A massive swing at the final table as Mullur now positions himself as the player to beat with seven remaining!
