Fendy Kosasih is an Indonesian poker player who has quickly made a name for himself on the Asian live circuit. With no legal poker scene in his home country, Kosasih regularly travels abroad to compete, most notably in the Philippines where he enjoyed a strong series of results to close out 2025.

All seven of his recorded live cashes came within a one-month stretch in Manila, an impressive feat that highlights both his consistency and determination to establish himself among the region’s emerging players. His standout performance came in the PHP 75,000 High Roller Warm-Up at the APPT Manila Championship 2025, where he topped a 32-entry field to claim PHP 722,200 (approximately USD 12,400).

Kosasih’s rise serves as an example of Indonesia’s growing poker presence overseas, with players like him proving that talent and dedication can overcome the country’s lack of domestic poker opportunities. As he continues to build experience on the regional circuit, Kosasih looks well-positioned to keep making progress in the Asian poker scene.
