He is best known for his aggressive play in fast-structured tournaments, having secured multiple titles in Turbo and 6-Handed events during his breakout 2025 season.
Career Earnings & Biggest Results
According to Somuchpoker database, Kheng Chen Ng has accumulated $16,115 in total live earnings, a record largely built upon his successes in late 2025. His most significant victory came at the Manila Megastack 23 in December 2025. In the No Limit Hold’em – 6 Handed event, he topped a field of 131 entries to claim the trophy and his career-best score of ₱202,162 ($3,450).
He demonstrated his aptitude for speed poker earlier in the year at the Asia Pacific Poker Tour (APPT) Manila Championship in October 2025. There, he won the Hyper Turbo event, defeating 32 opponents to take home ₱146,032 ($2,515). His consistency in high-pressure spots was further proven at the Manila Megastack 23, where he finished 4th in the Knockout [₱5K Bounty] event for ₱110,500 ($1,885). Additionally, he has logged solid results internationally, including a 66th place finish in the APT Taipei Championship Ultra Stack event for TWD 87,600 ($2,825).

Biography & Poker Background
Originally from Malaysia, Ng has established himself as a dedicated traveling grinder within the Southeast Asian region. His 2025 campaign shows a clear preference for the bustling poker hubs of Manila and Taipei, where he frequently competes in major festivals like the Asian Poker Tour (APT) and PokerStars LIVE series. His activity suggests a player who is serious about volume, evidenced by his 16 event attendances and 14 cashes in the 2025 season alone.
Play Style & Strategy
Ng’s track record reveals a distinct specialization in high-variance, fast-paced formats. His two primary victories occurred in 6-Handed and Hyper Turbo tournaments, formats that demand a wide opening range, aggressive blind stealing, and precise short-stack mathematics. The fact that he thrives in short-handed situations and “Knockout” bounty events suggests he is not afraid to gamble for chips and actively hunts eliminations rather than passively trying to survive. This aggressive gear makes him a dangerous opponent to face when the blinds are high and the pressure is on.
