Hui Liu 🇨🇳

Hui Liu represents China and has been recording live tournament results since as far back as 2017. His early years in poker included appearances in Macau and Sanya, where he played in various WPT and local championship events. After a break from the live scene for a few years, he returned with a much stronger presence in 2025. His recent journey has seen him traveling frequently to major poker hubs like Jeju Island. By consistently performing well in these destination tournaments, he has built a reputation as a player who can handle the pressure of big stages. His background shows a steady progression from small stakes opener events to becoming a regular threat in the most expensive tournaments on the schedule.

Hui Liu is known for a disciplined and resilient style of play. His results show that he is especially good at navigating through the long, multi day structures of Main Events. Reaching back to back final tables in the K Poker Cup shows that he has a deep understanding of tournament dynamics and knows how to maintain a high level of play over several days. His strategy involves a mix of patience and calculated aggression. While he is comfortable playing in large fields, he has also shown he can compete in “High Roller Deepstack” formats that require more technical skill. Liu’s ability to switch gears between different tournament types has allowed him to stay profitable across various series. His recent success suggests he has mastered the art of peak performance when the stakes are at their highest.

According to The Hendon Mob, Hui Liu has total live earnings of over $260,000. His career best score came in January 2026 at the K Poker Cup in Jeju, South Korea. He finished in 3rd place in the Main Event for a massive $114,718 payday. Liu has also found great success in other high profile events. In November 2025, he took 2nd place in the K Poker Cup Main Event during the Jeju Poker Festival for $91,081. He continued his hot streak into early 2026 at the APT Jeju Classic, where he finished 16th in the Main Event for $17,424. More recently, in March 2026, he traveled to Vietnam for the RPT Championship II, where he finished 5th in the High Roller Deepstack for $7,595. He also has early career cashes in PokerStars events in Macau. Hui Liu (credit: K Poker Cup)
