Most players with over $359,000 in career earnings like Maruf, tend to have their cashes come in a variety of different tournaments. Maruf, on the other hand, has had a large percentage of his winnings stem from the World Series of Poker Main Event. Since 2011, Maruf has cashes in the Main Event four times, including this year. Maruf’s best finish in the event came in 2013, when he finished 112th for $50,000.
This summer, Maruf had his largest career tournament score when he took home sixth place in the Borgata Summer Poker Open Championship for $62,000. All of that tournament experience should bode well for Maruf who faces the unenviable task of having chip leader Farid Jattin on his direct left.
With his years of making deep runs in main event fields, it is not much of a surprise to see Maruf do well in this event. On the WPT Final Table stage is where Maruf will have a chance to further build his legacy and potentially take home his first career major title.
