Chun Chieh Liu is a Chinese national who has dedicated himself to the live tournament grind across Asia. He first began recording results in 2023 and quickly showed that he could compete at a high level. Unlike many players who focus only on one region, Liu is known for his extensive travel schedule, often moving between Hanoi, Da Nang, Taipei, and Phnom Penh to find the best action. His background is defined by a rapid rise in the rankings, currently holding a spot in the top 1,000 of the China All Time Money List. Liu is comfortable playing in different environments, whether it is a small, technical field in a Short Deck event or a massive field in a major Main Event. His longevity and high frequency of cashes suggest he is a student of the game who is constantly adapting his strategy to stay ahead of the competition.

He is particularly effective in Short Deck formats, where he even holds a 1st place title from the 2023 World Poker Championship in Hanoi. This experience gives him a unique edge in understanding hand values and aggression. His strategy is built on adaptability and stamina. In long Main Events like those on the APT and WPT circuits, he focuses on staying patient during the early levels and picking his spots to accumulate chips. When he reaches the later stages, his experience in turbo and bounty events allows him to switch gears and apply pressure when necessary. Liu has noted that his goal is to remain a permanent fixture on the global circuit by maintaining a disciplined approach to both his play and his bankroll.
