Bin Weng is an American professional poker player who has quickly risen to become one of the most dominant and consistent forces on the modern tournament circuit. A two-time World Poker Tour (WPT) champion and World Series of Poker (WSOP) Circuit ring winner, Weng is best known for his historic 2023 campaign, where he recorded a staggering $6.6 million in winnings and secured back-to-back WPT final tables as the chip leader. Currently ranking as a top earner in Pennsylvania’s poker history, he is revered for his fearless aggression and technical precision.
Career Earnings & Biggest Results
With total live tournament earnings surpassing $10,060,000 (according to The Hendon Mob), Weng is a member of the elite $10M club. His career-best live score of $2,227,054 was achieved in July 2023 with a victory in the WPT EveryOne for One Drop at Wynn Las Vegas. Weng’s 2023 season was one of the greatest in poker history; he captured the WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown for $1,128,250 and won “The Return” at Borgata for $1,000,000. He has maintained his elite form through early 2026, recently finishing 2nd in the November 2025 NAPT Las Vegas High Roller for $224,100 and 3rd in the October 2025 Wynn Fall Classic Championship for $92,356. His meteoric rise and high-stakes dominance contribute to an estimated poker net worth of over $10 million.
Biography & Poker Background
Born and raised in China before moving to the United States at age 18, Weng’s journey to the top is a true “grinder’s” success story. Before becoming a full-time pro, he helped manage a small Chinese restaurant on Long Island, New York. Weng focused primarily on high-stakes cash games for nearly 15 years before pivoting to the tournament circuit in 2017. His breakthrough moment came in 2020 at the WPT Borgata, and since then, he has become a symbol of relentless dedication. Residing in Mineola, Pennsylvania, Weng is a key figure in the Northeast poker community and is often cited by his peers as one of the hardest-working players in the game. His historic 2023 run earned him the WPT Player of the Year honors and solidified his reputation as a world-class competitor.
Play Style & Strategy
Weng is renowned for a “highly aggressive, fearless, and exploitative” play style. While he utilizes modern solver-based foundations, his true edge lies in his unrelenting pressure and his ability to read “live” table dynamics better than almost anyone on the circuit. He is a master of the “big stack” strategy, frequently using his chip lead to force opponents into marginal tournament-life decisions. Weng is also a versatile threat in Mixed Game formats, as evidenced by his 2nd-place finish in a Ten Game Mix event at the 2025 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open. His approach is characterized by a “never back down” mentality and a willingness to take high-variance risks for the win, a strategy that has led to an unprecedented number of major trophies in a short window of time.
