Qi Li is a Chinese poker player who has recently come into the spotlight on the Asian tournament circuit, specifically for his performances in Cambodia.

Career Earnings & Biggest Results

While his tracked career earnings are currently modest (according to The Hendon Mob), Qi Li is in the midst of a potential breakout moment in early 2026.

Most notably, in January 2026, he made headlines at the WPT Cambodia festival held at NagaWorld. Qi Li secured the chip lead going into the final table of the WPT Cambodia Warm Up event , positioning himself for what could be his first major career title and biggest live score to date. This deep run follows his participation in previous regional festivals, including the APPT Cambodia in 2025.

Biography & Poker Background

Originally from China, Qi Li is part of the influx of Chinese players competing in the Southeast Asian circuit. His tournament schedule shows a clear preference for events in Cambodia, particularly at the NagaWorld Integrated Resort in Phnom Penh. His ability to navigate large fields in “Warm Up” and opener events suggests he is a disciplined grinder looking to establish a foothold in the mid-stakes scene.

Play Style & Strategy

Qi Li’s recent performance in the WPT Warm Up highlights his ability to build and maintain big stacks. Entering the final six of a major field as the chip leader indicates a willingness to apply pressure on the bubble and leverage stack distribution advantages against shorter stacks.
