Samuel Mullur

Originally from Vorarlberg, Austria , Samuel Mullur represents the next generation of the formidable Austrian-German poker school. Unlike many veterans, Mullur’s rise was nearly instantaneous; before his 2023 breakthrough, he had just over $100,000 in live cashes. He credits much of his success to working with world-class mentors like Fedor Holz and being part of the Pokercode team. Mullur is known for his disciplined mindset, often citing meditation and emotional control as the secrets to his endurance during long high-roller final tables. Despite being only in his mid-20s, his poise and humility have made him a staple in the world’s most exclusive “nosebleed” games.

Mullur is a master of modern GTO (Game Theory Optimal) play, possessing a technical depth that allows him to compete against the best AI-trained players in the world. He is specifically lauded for his understanding of ICM (Independent Chip Model), which he utilizes to apply maximum pressure in high-stakes “High Roller” final tables. However, Mullur isn’t a “solver-only” robot; he is an advocate of speech play and physical tells, famously using a three-hour heads-up battle in the Bahamas to dissect his opponent’s habits. His approach is characterized by a “calm aggression,” staying balanced in massive pots while maintaining a relentless ability to exploit the specific weaknesses of his competition.

With total live tournament earnings surpassing $11,156,000, Mullur is a titan of the European poker scene. His career-best live score of $3,509,025 was achieved with a 2nd-place finish in the 2025 Triton Poker Series Jeju $100,000 NLH Main Event. Mullur first exploded onto the world stage in 2023 by winning the WSOP Paradise $25,000 GGMillion$ High Roller for $2,726,300, a victory that earned him his first gold bracelet. Through 2025 and early 2026, he has maintained a blistering pace, securing titles and final tables at the EPT Barcelona and Triton Monte Carlo stops. His combined live and online success contributes to an estimated poker net worth of over $12 million.
