Li Weijie 🇲🇾

Wai Kiat Lee, originally from Malaysia and now residing in Sungai Buloh, Singapore, has transformed from a regional player into a formidable professional poker player on the global stage. He is a regular on the Asian Poker Tour (APT) and in major tournaments in Taiwan and South Korea, and is one of the most consistent players in the Triton Poker Series. Thanks to his exceptional skills in both No-Limit Hold'em and Short Deck Poker, he achieved a career-high Global Poker Index (GPI) ranking of 33rd in 2025.

Li Weijie is known for his highly aggressive and technical tournament strategies, particularly in high-stakes and fast-paced events where tactical precision is crucial. His runner-up finish at the 2025 APT Taipei Mini High Roller demonstrated exceptional chip management and resilience, successfully emerging victorious from a field of 184 players to win over $184,000. His strategy combines a deep understanding of high-stakes dynamics with the aggression required to succeed in the world's top-tier "white coat" level tournaments, as evidenced by his consecutive victories in two major events and his success at the 2025 Triton Series.
