Profile
Jack En Ching Wu hails from Taiwan and can be considered the biggest fan of the Asian Pacific Poker Tour (APPT) as he has only according to Hendonmob cashed in live tournaments hosted by the APPT and sponsored by PokerStars.
Wu has been playing since 2011 but got the attention of his peers by consistently winning through the years 2014 and 2015. It would seem that his accomplishments during these 2 years were only a warm-up to prepare him for the year 2016. In March 2016, Wu got his first big win during the Asia Championship of Poker (ACOP) Platinum Series XII Main Event where he earned more than USD$33,000. In the same ACOP series, he also won the Deepstack Event for USD$5,499.
Every month of 2016, Wu cashed in one event or another but he finally made his biggest cash to date when he found himself victorious in the APPT 10 Macau Poker Cup HKD$20,000 No Limit Holdem Event taking home over USD$100,000.
With Wu’s 2016 amazing performance, it was but natural that he was named Asia Player of the Year claiming 9,492 point throughout the year. Players all over Asia definitely keep an eye out whenever Wu enters the playing field as he is becoming one of Asia’s fastest rising stars.
