Adrien Berger is a French professional poker player who has become a prominent figure in the Southeast Asian poker scene, particularly dominating events held at NagaWorld in Cambodia.

Career Earnings & Biggest Results

According to The Hendon Mob, Adrien Berger has career total earnings of $195,633. His most significant live result occurred in July 2024 at the World Poker Tour – WPT Cambodia Passport to the World Championship in Phnom Penh. Competing in the $1,300 Championship event, he navigated a massive field to reach the final table, ultimately finishing in 5th place for a career-high score of $48,560.

Berger’s dominance at NagaWorld reached a fever pitch during the WPT Cambodia 2026 festival. He secured back-to-back victories, first winning the WPT Megastack for $18,484 and then claiming the title in the WPT 1K Re-Entry for $7,421. His consistent performance at the venue is further bolstered by a 20th-place finish in the 2025 WPT Cambodia Championship Main Event for $20,600 and a previous victory in a WPT Cambodia Bounty event for $10,112. He also holds a podium finish in the Asia Pacific Poker Tour – APPT Cambodia National event for $19,800.

Biography & Poker Background

Originally from France, Berger has transitioned into a “road warrior” of the Asian poker circuit. While he maintains a presence on the French All Time Money List, the vast majority of his success has been concentrated in the booming markets of Cambodia and Vietnam. He has established himself as one of the most consistent European expats in the region, frequently appearing in major festivals hosted by the World Poker Tour (WPT) and the Asia Pacific Poker Tour (APPT). His deep familiarity with the NagaWorld facilities and local player pools has made him a perennial threat in Phnom Penh.

Play Style & Strategy

Berger is known for a highly disciplined and resilient tournament strategy. He excels in navigating large-field No Limit Hold’em events, where his patient approach allows him to capitalize on the high variance often found in regional Asian tours. During his deep run in the WPT Cambodia Championship, he demonstrated exceptional composure under high-pressure final table dynamics and strong ICM awareness. His recent surge in “Megastack” and “Re-Entry” titles further highlights his ability to adjust his aggression levels fluidly to match the specific structures and field types of NagaWorld festivals.
