Biography

Hossein Ensan is an Iranian-German poker player who won the 2019 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event. He topped a field of 8,569 players and defeated Italy’s Dario Sammartino heads-up to win $10,000,000.

Biography

Born in Iran, Ensan moved to Germany in his 20s before studying civil engineering at the University of Munster. He took up poker late in life, and burst onto the scene in August 2014 when he won the EPT Barcelona Seniors Event, before finishing third in the Main Event for 652,000. By the end of 2015, Ensan had made a further two EPT Main Event final tables in Malta and Prague, winning the EPT Prague Main Event for 754,510. In 2017, Ensan won a WSOP Circuit ring in the WSOPC Rozvadov Main Event, winning 184,812 in the process. 2019 WSOP Champ Hossein Ensan Reflects on EPT History At the 2019 World Series of Poker, Ensan entered the final table of the Main Event as the overwhelming chip leader. Backed by a boisterous rail he came out on top and became world champion. “It is the best feeling I have in all my life,” he said at the time. Later that year, Ensan made another deep run in the EPT Prague Main Event but ultimately finished 14th.

Biography Teun Mulder is a Dutch professional poker player, not to be confused with the Netherlands’ world champion cyclist of the same name. Mulder has more than $6 million in online poker tournament winnings, the bulk of which stems from his play at PokerStars, where he is known as “tinnoemulder.” Mulder has online poker tournament cashes dating back to 2013 but it is in recent years where the Dutchman’s skills have been there for all to see. In 2020, Mulder won a $10,300 Spring Championship Of Online Poker (SCOOP) event for $113,785, a $5,200 Blowout Series title for $211,740, and was the third-place finisher in the $5,200 World Championship Of Online Poker (WCOOP) for a career-best $762,169. He added a second SCOOP title to his long list of poker accomplishments in 2021, taking down the $5,200 High Roller for $247,089. Mulder’s first recorded live cash came in August 2017 when he finished fourth in the 1,650 WSOPC Rotterdam Main Event for 31,214. Although Mulder does not play all that many live events, his results are incredible. At the time of writing, nine of Mulder’s 35 live scores are worth six figures or more (he has two hauls of more than $1 million). In 2020, Mulder finished second in the online edition of the $10,300 WPT World Championship Main Event at PartyPoker for $1,231,600, which remained his best-ever score for only two years. In 2022, Mulder won a 25,000 High Roller at EPT Prague for 250,928 and followed that up with a seventh-place finish in the 5,300 EPT Prague Main Event a few days later for an additional 138,750. Less than a month later, Mulder won a $100,000 buy-in event at the Triton Poker Cyprus festival for a massive $1,940,000. The future is bright for this flying Dutchman.
