Siegfried Friedl

Siegfried Friedl is a poker professional from Austria who has built a steady record in both online and live tournaments. While not a household name, his consistent cashes across various platforms and events demonstrate a solid understanding of the game.

According to WSOP.com, Friedl has recorded 37 cashes on WSOP-affiliated platforms, including WSOP Europe and online poker events, with total earnings of $44,470. His results span a variety of buy-ins, from $150 events to $2,100 high rollers, showing adaptability across formats. Notable online results include a 4th place in a $2,100 6-Handed Bounty for $4,713 and a 89th place in a $150 GGMasters for $1,047.

In live play, Friedl participated in the 2025 APT Championship Taipei series. He cashed in the Mini Main Event Championship (buy-in: 35,000 TWD), finishing 148th out of 1,603 entries for $2,015 — his largest recorded live cash.

At the 2025 APT High Roller Championship (Event 13), Friedl was involved in a crucial hand during Day 1. He held pocket kings against Vietnam’s Thi Xoa Nguyen, who slow-played pocket aces. Nguyen check-called every street, and Friedl fired repeatedly, only to see his opponent’s aces at showdown. The cooler cost Friedl a significant portion of his stack, though his final placement in that event is not recorded.

Based on available hand history, Friedl appears to be an aggressive player who is willing to build large pots with strong holdings. His multiple bets with kings against a potential trap suggest a confident, value-oriented approach. However, his overall strategy is typical of many experienced tournament grinders, balancing aggression with careful bankroll management across the wide range of events he enters.

Friedl remains active in the global poker circuit, regularly entering online events and occasional live series. As of 2026, his career continues with a focus on WSOP Online and online poker tournaments, where he looks to add to his $44,000 in earnings.
