Bin Weng's Dominance in High-Stakes Poker Tournaments in 2023

Bin Weng, a 40-year-old Chinese-American poker player, has been crushing the live poker scene in 2023. Weng's breakthrough year began in Atlantic City at the Borgata casino in The Return: A Borgata Championship Event. Weng received exactly $1 million after a heads-up deal in The Return: A Borgata Championship Event.

Only six weeks later, another victory came in a World Series of Poker Circuit event in Las Vegas, earning nearly a quarter of a million dollars. Weng won the $3,500 WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown, earning $1,128,250. This was really some run starting to come together and only a week later, he came close again in a WPT event in Choctaw with a fourth place finish for $143,000.

Weng finished second in the $25,000 High Roller at The Lodge Card Club, earning $145,000. No less than seven cashes at the WSOP in the first month and a half were crowned by a trip over to the Wynn Las Vegas for the inaugural WPT EveryOne for One Drop which he ended up winning for $2,227,054. Weng's winning streak continued as he took down the WPT $25,000 High Roller at Wynn Las Vegas, outlasting 194 entries to win $958,279. Weng's total career earnings exceed $8.5 million.
