Chaar-Lee discovered poker over 20 years ago, starting with fixed-limit games before embracing the rise of No-Limit Hold’em across cash games, STTs, and MTTs. In the early days, he and his circle sometimes played more than 40 different formats in a single night. He organized the first poker camp in his region and has contributed poker technology to several televised shows. Today, he supports the SOMUCHPOKER team from the tech side, blending two decades of poker passion with technical expertise.

Despite only recently penetrating the poker scene, rookie player Sam Lam has made history by winning the biggest Super High Roller in the Asian Poker Tour series. During his impressive run in 2023, Lam took home NTD 3,997,400 (USD 129,880) and beat out 117 entries—the largest field in 15 years of APT.

The rookie’s record-breaking win scored him 245.61 GPI points, undoubtedly pointing his poker career in the right direction. The only other record in Lam’s poker arsenal thus far was a stint at the 2014 Aspers Newcastle Recurring Tournaments, where he participated in the No-Limit Hold’em League Final and placed 2nd, winning £900.
