Michael Wo

Michael Wo is a Canadian poker player whose tournament activity is concentrated in WSOP Circuit events, particularly those held at Deerfoot Inn & Casino in Alberta. While not a high-profile name on the global stage, he has demonstrated steady results in both No-Limit Hold'em and Pot-Limit Omaha formats, accumulating over $24,000 in WSOP-related earnings from 10 documented cashes.

Wo's first recorded WSOP cash came in January 2023, and he has since cashed in at least one event each year. His most significant result to date is a victory in a $400 No-Limit Hold'em Monster Stack event at the WSOP Circuit Deerfoot Inn & Casino on May 4, 2023, earning $12,389. He also finished runner-up in a Pot-Limit Omaha Megastack event during the 2025 Summer Series, taking home $8,358 after an extended heads-up battle.

Below are his top five cashes by prize:

Outside his win, Wo's deepest run came in the 2025 Summer Series Event #13: PLO Megastack, where he held the chip lead for most of the tournament before finishing second. The heads-up battle lasted over two hours, eventually ending when his queens lost to two pair on a jack-high flop. That performance earned him $8,358 and highlighted his ability to navigate the often volatile PLO format.

Wo has also cashed in the WSOP Circuit Main Event at Deerfoot (January 2023, 79th place for $3,898) and in a $1,000 Tag Team event at the 2025 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.
