Biography & Poker Background
Based in York, Pennsylvania, Mueller is a long-standing fixture on the US tournament circuit who has competed at an extraordinary volume across his career. His 167 recorded cashes - combined with 34 online results - reflect a grinder’s commitment to the game that spans well over a decade of consistent play. His five Circuit rings confirm that volume alone does not explain his record; he converts deep runs into titles at a rate that marks him out as a genuine threat at any domestic event.
His most recent win at the 2026 Borgata Summer Poker Open added a new dimension to his résumé. Mueller won the $650 PLO Championship wire-to-wire, holding the chip lead for almost the entire final day before defeating Danny Chang heads-up. Speaking to PokerNews after the victory, he was characteristically self-deprecating: “I’m just super, super excited. This is my first live PLO win. I have no idea how to play PLO.”

His track record across 30 WSOP final tables and five Circuit ring wins points to a disciplined, adaptable game built on a deep understanding of tournament structure and stack management.
