Shixiang Khoo 🇸🇬

Originally from Singapore and currently residing there, Shixiang Khoo has transitioned from a regional competitor to a consistent professional on the major Asian circuits. While a mainstay of prominent festivals such as the Asian Poker Tour (APT) and the World Poker Tour (WPT) Prime , the player has also demonstrated versatility by recording cashes in the U Series of Poker (USOP) and Poker Dream . This steady climb is reflected in the Global Poker Index (GPI) ranking, where Shixiang Khoo reached a career-high of 4,906th in the world during late 2025.

Shixiang Khoo is known for a highly adaptable and technical tournament strategy, often excelling in “Hyper Turbo,” “Double Stack,” and “Bomb Pot” formats where tactical precision is paramount. During the deep run in the 2025 APT Taipei Micro Main Event, Shixiang Khoo demonstrated elite stack management while navigating a massive field of 750 entries to reach the final table. The strategic approach combines a disciplined understanding of No Limit Hold’em with the aggression required to thrive in fast-paced championship environments, a skill evidenced by the ability to bag top-tier stacks, such as holding the second-largest stack during the flight stages of the 2025 APT Ultra Stack Championship.

According to The Hendon Mob, Shixiang Khoo has accumulated over $280,072 in total live earnings. He sits comfortably among the top 50 on the Singapore All Time Money List. His career-best live cash and breakout title came at the APT Summer Series Da Nang Main Event in July 2023, where he defeated a 675-player field to win VND 3,935,285,000 (~$166,302). This victory was a record-breaking prize pool for an APT event in Vietnam. More recently, he secured a 5th-place finish in the APT Championship Micro Main Event in November 2025 for TWD 297,300 (~USD 9,530). Shixiang Khoo – photo APT
