Alexander “Alex” Wice is a Canadian-Thai professional poker player and mathematics prodigy, widely recognized as a legendary high-volume online grinder who has successfully transitioned into a formidable force in the Asian High Roller circuit.

Career Earnings & Biggest Results

With over $1.6 million in total live earnings, Wice ranks 4th on the Thailand All Time Money List (you can check it on The Hendon Mod). His resume bridges two eras of poker: his breakout live score came in 2011 with a 3rd place finish at EPT Deauville for €330,000 ($449,145).

After a hiatus focusing on cryptocurrency and trading, Wice returned to the live felt with dominant performances in 2024 and 2025. Most recently, he finished runner-up in the APT Taipei Super High Roller (November 2025) for $332,100, cementing his status as a top contender in the Asian high-stakes scene. These consistent six-figure scores have significantly contributed to his poker net worth.

Biography & Poker Background

Originally from Canada, Wice studied mathematics at the University of Waterloo before dropping out to pursue poker full-time. He became an online legend under the screen name “AWice,” famous for his ability to multi-table dozens of games simultaneously using custom scripts (StackAndTile).

Wice later shifted his mathematical focus to the cryptocurrency market, becoming a successful trader. In recent years, he has adopted Thailand as his home and flag, re-emerging on the live circuit as “Alexander Chalermklao Wice.” He is now a regular fixture at major Asian festivals like the Asian Poker Tour (APT) and Triton Series, often competing in the highest buy-in tournaments available.

Play Style & Strategy

Known for a highly mathematical and GTO (Game Theory Optimal) approach, Wice treats poker as a complex logic puzzle. His background in mass multi-tabling gave him an elite ability to make rapid, high-EV decisions under pressure.

Unlike “feel” players, Wice’s strategy relies on precise range calculation and ICM awareness. This analytical edge makes him particularly dangerous in High Roller structures, where he frequently navigates final tables against the world’s best professionals like Roman Hrabec and Isaac Haxton.
