Weiran Pu 🇨🇳

Originally from Chongqing, China, Pu has been playing poker for over 13 years. Before his breakout on the Western circuit, he built a massive following as a poker vlogger and social media influencer in China, documenting his journey through hundreds of vlogs. While he was already a respected player in the Macau “Big Game” and regional Asian tours like the Poker King Cup, his transition to global festivals in 2023 proved to be a turning point. Despite a slow start at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA) and various European Poker Tour (EPT) events, his resilience culminated in his massive bracelet win in Las Vegas.

Pu is recognized for his exceptional technical proficiency and mental fortitude, qualities he deems essential for navigating high-variance tournament fields. He describes the competition in events like the WSOP $25,000 High Roller as the toughest in the world, yet he has consistently demonstrated an ability to hold his own against the world’s best GTO-oriented players. His strategy blends a deep understanding of modern poker theory with an exploitative edge honed from years of playing in the unique environment of Macau’s high-stakes games. Whether under the pressure of a WSOP final table or competing in a Triton Mystery Bounty event, Pu’s patient and calculated approach makes him a formidable threat in any 6-max or full-ring field.

According to The Hendon Mob, Weiran Pu has accumulated $3,534,551 in total live earnings. His career-defining moment came during the 2023 WSOP , where he emerged victorious in Event #65: $5,000 6-Handed No-Limit Hold’em to win $938,244. This victory marked China’s fifth bracelet of that summer and solidified Pu’s status as an elite international competitor. In addition to his WSOP success, Pu has become a regular fixture in the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series . His notable results in the series include a 3rd-place finish in the $40k NLH Mystery Bounty at Triton Monte Carlo 2024 for $325,000 (plus $240,000 in bounties) and a 5th-place finish at Triton Jeju 2025 for $309,000. Earlier in his career, he claimed a major title by winning the 2018 Poker King Cup Macau Main Event for HKD 1,464,000 (∼$187,239). Weiran Pu
