Hang Xu 🇨🇳

Originally from China and currently residing in London, England, Hang Xu has successfully transitioned from regional competition to the global stage. He is a frequent traveler on the international circuit, regularly posting results at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) in Las Vegas, the European Poker Tour (EPT) in Monte Carlo, and major festivals across South Korea and Taiwan. His steady climb in the Global Poker Index (GPI) rankings, reaching a high of 374th, reflects his status as a top-tier professional regular.

Hang Xu is known for a high-pressure and aggressive tournament strategy, particularly effective in fast-paced “Turbo” and “Ultra Stack” formats. His ability to navigate large-field events was evidenced during the 2025 WSOP, where he recorded over a dozen cashes, including a deep run in the $3,000 Mid-Stakes Championship. His tactical approach combines a disciplined understanding of high-stakes dynamics with the volatility required to close out titles in elite High Roller environments.

With over $1,276,000 in total live earnings, Hang Xu currently ranks 53rd on the China All Time Money List. According to The Hendon Mob, he surpassed the $1,000,000 milestone in 2025, a year that saw him accumulate more than $506,000 in winnings. His career-best live cash of $162,406 was achieved in early 2025 during a high-stakes series in Malaysia. His recent records demonstrate exceptional consistency in elite fields. In November 2025, Hang captured a title at the APT Championship Taipei , winning the Turbo High Roller for $57,953. He followed this with multiple final table appearances in the same series, including an 8th-place finish in the Natural8 Cup Freezeout Turbo. Earlier in the year, he also recorded a 3rd-place finish in the APT Incheon High Roller Turbo for $11,539. Xu Hang (photo courtesy of Asian Poker Tour)
