Jun Wang

Jun Wang is a Chinese-American poker professional whose public tournament record spans major live series across North America, Europe, and Asia. While biographical details about his early life and entry into poker remain limited, his results indicate a player who has steadily built a career through frequent participation in high-volume festival events rather than relying on a single breakout score. His appearances at WSOP, European Poker Tour (EPT), Triton Poker Series, and regional circuits like RGPS and APPT demonstrate a willingness to travel and compete across formats and buy-in levels.

Wang's tournament résumé includes a wide range of cashes, with notable performances in both flagship events and smaller side events. One of his standout results came at the 2022 PokerStars EPT Prague, where he finished 4th in the €5,300 Main Event for €361,950 — his largest recorded single payout. He also reached the final table of the 2025 WSOP Event #88: $50,000 High Roller, taking 4th place for $879,939, which stands as his biggest cash to date.

In high-roller competition, Wang has shown consistency: at the 2025 WSOP Paradise, he placed 12th in the $100,000 Triton Main Event ($363,000) and 13th in the $150,000 Triton 8-Handed ($231,000). He also finished 17th in the 2026 WSOP Event #24: $25,000 High Roller Six-Handed for $68,178 and 15th in the 2023 WSOP Paradise $25,000 GGMillion$ High Rollers Championship for $108,800. At the 2025 Triton Poker Series Jeju, he placed 30th in the $100,000 NLHE Main Event for $178,000.

Beyond high rollers, Wang has cashed in numerous WSOP events across disciplines. In 2025 alone, he recorded results in Event #43: $1,500 Razz (39th, $3,559), Event #23: $1,500 Badugi (49th, $3,149), and Event #11: $10,000 Mystery Bounty (45th, $17,506), showing comfort in mixed-game formats. He also finished 31st in the 2025 WSOP Event #3: $5,000 8-Handed No-Limit Hold'em for $18,736 and 51st in Event #29: $2,500 No-Limit Hold'em for $10,539.

Wang's results extend beyond the WSOP and Triton circuits. At the 2023 PokerStars EPT Paris, he placed 20th in the €10,300 High Roller for €37,800, and at the 2022 EPT Barcelona, he finished 21st in the €10,300 High Roller for €38,350. In 2023, he cashed in the APPT Manila Main Event, finishing 182nd for 109,000 PHP. He also won the 2025 RGPS Mission RunGood Japan $175 Colossus, taking 1st place for $26,053 — a rare outright victory in his recorded results.

Wang has also made deep runs in WSOP Main Event and related events. He finished 994th in the 2022 WSOP Main Event for $17,000 and 75th in the 2023 WSOP Paradise $5,000 Main Event Championship for $22,500. In the 2025 WSOP Paradise Super Main Event ($25,000), he placed 169th for $70,000. Additional cashes include a 4th-place finish in the 2022 EPT Prague Main Event (€361,950), a 50th-place result in the 2022 Wynn Summer Classic $3,500 NLH Championship ($18,516), and a 107th-place finish in the 2021 Wynn Fall Classic $1,600 Mystery Bounty for $5,087.

Based on his tournament results, Wang appears to be a versatile player comfortable with both No-Limit Hold'em and mixed games such as Razz and Badugi. His frequent cashes in high-roller events suggest an aggressive, high-variance style suited to deep-stack tournament play, while his ability to navigate large-field events like the Colossus and Millionaire Maker indicates patience and endurance. His participation in Triton events — known for featuring elite short-deck and NLHE specialists — further underscores his comfort at the highest levels of competition.

Wang remains active on the live tournament circuit, with results recorded as recently as 2026. At the 2026 WSOP, he cashed in Event #73: $5,000 6-Handed No-Limit Hold'em (202nd, $9,971), Event #56: $3,000 6-Handed (50th, $9,050), and Event #16: $1,700 U.S. Circuit Championship (131st, $4,150). His continued presence across WSOP, Triton, and EPT stops suggests a player who maintains a busy schedule and remains competitive against the world's best. While he has yet to secure a major title, his consistent deep runs and multiple six-figure scores place him among the more accomplished Chinese-American grinders on the international circuit.
