Mansoor Kader

Mansoor Kader is a seasoned American poker player who has built a steady career on the tournament circuit, particularly in Florida's Seminole Hard Rock series. With 11 WSOP-recorded cashes and multiple WPT finishes, Kader has accumulated over $39,000 in live tournament earnings. His aggressive playing style has led to several deep runs, including a runner-up finish in a 377-player event.

Kader has cashed three times on the World Poker Tour, earning a total of $21,715. His highest finish came in the 2021 WPT Seminole Hard Rock Tampa Championship, where he placed 49th out of 1,165 entries for $11,795. He also made the money in two 2024 WPT events:

• WPT Prime Championship (Wynn Las Vegas, Dec 2024): 594th of 9,670 – $2,920
• WPT Rock 'n' Roll Poker Open Championship (Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood, Dec 2024): 116th of 1,435 – $7,000

Kader's World Series of Poker results include two notable cashes:

• 2022 WSOP Monster Stack ($1,500 buy-in): 931st of 6,501 – $2,400
• 2021 WSOP The Reunion ($400 buy-in): 1,481st of 12,973 – $875

Kader has been a regular at Seminole Hard Rock Tampa and Hollywood events, achieving several deep runs and a final table:

• 2024 $1,700 WPO Championship (425 entries): 53rd – $2,960 (eliminated by Dakota Diaz; Kader turned a set but Diaz rivered a straight)
• 2022 $200 Quad Stack (145 entries): 8th – $6,560
• 2022 $200 Quad Stack (377 entries): 2nd – $3,629
• 2021 $600 Deep Stack (510 entries): 23rd – $1,305
• 2022 $400 Deep Stack (4,259 entries): 274th – $1,200
• 2022 $200 Big Stack (696 entries): 51st – $445
• 2022 $2,200 No Limit Hold'em (106 entries): Kader led at one point (16 players remaining) but final result not listed.

In April 2022, Kader finished runner-up in a $200 Quad Stack event at Seminole Hard Rock Tampa, earning $3,629. The event drew 377 entrants, and Kader's heads-up loss showcased his ability to navigate large fields.

Based on reported hands, Kader employs an aggressive, high-pressure style. In the 2024 WPO Championship, he open-shipped from the hijack with a short stack, hoping to double up. His turn set gave him the lead, but a river straight from his opponent ended his run. This willingness to take risks has earned him multiple deep finishes.

Mansoor Kader remains a consistent force in Florida's poker scene, with career earnings of $39,264 and 11 recorded cashes. While he has not yet won a major title, his repeated success in large-field events proves his skill as a tournament grinder.
