Alberto Flores (also known as Alberto Flores Trujillo or Alberto Morales Flores) is a Spanish poker player with live tournament earnings exceeding $50,000.

Early Career and First Major Win
Alberto Flores first appeared on the live tournament scene in 2017 at the 888Live Poker Festival Barcelona. He won the €220 Opening Event, pocketing €11,775 after defeating a field of 720 entries. This victory marked his first recorded live cash and put him on the map in the Spanish poker community.
[High Roller](/term/high-roller) and Main Event Success
Over the years, Flores has demonstrated his ability to compete in both large-field tournaments and high roller events. In 2017, he also cashed in the €2,200 High Roller at the same festival, showing early versatility. His results in Asia have been particularly notable:
- APT Taipei 2025 Main Event: Finished 28th out of 2,547 entries for $13,655.
- APPT Cambodia 2025 Mystery Big Bounty High Roller: Won the event for $10,200.
- WPT Cambodia Championship 2025: Placed 79th for $6,400.
- WPT Dusk Till Dawn Nottingham 2019-2021: Placed 81st for $6,000.
He also cashed in multiple APPT Cambodia 2025 side events, including a Mystery Bounty event for $1,500 and the APT Main Event for $13,655.
Playing Style
From available hand histories, Flores is an aggressive player who is not afraid to apply pressure. In the 2017 Barcelona event, he doubled up with a cooler and later eliminated Martin Kilchenmann with a pair against a draw. During the 2025 APPT Cambodia main event, he was observed barreling twice on a dry board to force a fold. His willingness to fire multiple streets and put opponents to tough decisions is a hallmark of his game.
Recent Photos and Legacy
Flores is frequently photographed at Asian tour stops, particularly under the APPT and APT banners. His profile on Somuchpoker lists a net worth in Asia-Pacific of $26,506 from three cashes, with a biggest win of $13,655. While not a household name, his consistent cashes in major tournaments suggest a skilled and dedicated player.
Note: Despite initial reports listing him as British, all available records indicate Alberto Flores is Spanish. The mix-up may have arisen from similar names or misattribution.
