Michael Zulker Eliminated in 281st Place by Mo Nuwwarah

Dec 18, 2024

William Stanford raises to 40,000 in early position, Mo Nuwwarah calls in the cutoff, and Michael Zulker calls in the big blind.

The flop is Club 9Heart 6Diamond 3 and action checks to Nuwwarah who bets 45,000. Zulker takes some time before he check-raises to 100,000 (leaving 10,000 behind), Stanford folds, and Nuwwarah reraises all in with a covering stack. Zulker asks for a count on Nuwwarah’s chips.

“You’re 40 away a from a payjump,” says one of his tablemates.

Zulker calls all in for the extra 10,000 with Spade 10Heart 9 for a pair of nines, but Nuwwarah has him beat with Club 6Spade 6 for a set of sixes.

The Heart K turn and Heart 8 river complete the board, safe for Nuwwarah to score the elimination.

Mo Nuwwarah  – 900,000  (45 bb)
Michael Zulker  –  Eliminated in 281st Place  ($29,600)
