Akbar Zamani triumphed at the World Series of Poker Circuit event in Thunder Valley Casino Resort, securing $187,882 and earning his first gold ring. This tournament showcased his skills and strategy as he executed confident bluffs throughout the competition. With 676 entries, the tournament generated a $1,024,140 prize pool, far surpassing the initial guarantee. Zamani held the chip lead at the final table and eliminated several players, ultimately winning against Antonio Ma in the heads-up match. Zamani’s prior $500,000 lottery win emphasizes his notable success in gaming.
"Most of the hands that I played, I was actually bluffing, but I bluffed with confidence," Zamani told reporters when he was asked about his play in the tournament.
"When we sat down, the two of us, I just felt that I'm going to win it. Yeah, I love heads-up. I think I had control over him.
