Linghui Dai 🇨🇳

Hailing from China, Dai has strategically positioned himself as a regular fixture at the Landing Casino in Jeju, which has become a primary hub for his professional grind. Since crossing the $100,000 career earnings milestone in early 2024, his trajectory has been marked by a steady climb through the ranks of the China All Time Money List, where he currently sits at 245th. He is a frequent traveler to major gambling hubs like Hanoi and Kuala Lumpur, often recording cashes in the Poker Dream and WPT Prime series. His rapid ascent over the last two years has made him one of the most active and successful representatives of the Chinese poker community in the Asia-Pacific region.

Dai is recognized for a disciplined and calculated approach to No Limit Hold’em, particularly in large-field championship structures. His success in “Mystery Bounty” and “Win the Button” formats, including a 3rd-place finish at the 2025 Korea Poker Cup, highlights a sharp understanding of short-stack technical play and ICM pressure. On the felt, he is a resilient competitor who excels at navigating the “bubble” phase, a skill evidenced by his numerous deep runs in pro-heavy fields. Whether he is leveraging a stack at a WPT Prime final table or grinding through the high-variance environment of a RDPT turbo, Dai’s tactical flexibility and technical foundation make him a dangerous opponent in any tournament field.

According to The Hendon Mob and its total earnings, Linghui Dai has accumulated $361,740 in total live winnings. His career reached a significant peak in July 2025 at the Jeju Poker Festival , where he secured his best live cash of $126,598. This performance was followed by another massive score in March 2024, where he earned $118,737 at the WPT Korea in Jeju. Dai’s 2025 campaign has been defined by his high volume and consistency in South Korea. At the APT Jeju 2025, he secured a 6th-place finish in the Korea National Cup for KRW 19,935,000 (∼$14,195) and placed 66th in the APT Main Event for KRW 8,390,000 (∼$5,954). He also found success at the Red Dragon Poker Tour (RDPT) Jeju, where he finished 3rd in the Flip Out for KRW 2,430,000 (∼$1,762) and 53rd in the Red Dragon Championship for KRW 8,140,000 (∼$5,627). His international reach extended to Vietnam in late 2025, where he finished 5th in the GLPC II Superstar Challenge for VND 281,100,000 (∼$10,686). Linghui Dai
