Stephen Chidwick

Stephen Chidwick is widely regarded as one of the best tournament poker players in the world. Hailing from Deal in Kent, England, he made his mark early by grinding online and then shifting into high-stakes live events where he quickly became a fixture at the final table. According to the The Hendon Mob database, his live tournament earnings exceed US $68 million, and his largest single-cash sits at approximately US $5.37 million.

Chidwick’s rise to the top came through a mix of high-roller formats, mixed games and super-high stakes tournaments. For example, at the 2025 50,000 High Roller Pot‑Limit Omaha event, he secured a runner-up finish worth US $1.43 million in a field of 194 players.

Chidwick is known for his adaptability: whether it’s No-Limit Hold’em, Pot-Limit Omaha or mixed variants, he maintains a deep technical grasp and a calm, analytical demeanor at the table. His consistent presence across global live circuits – from Las Vegas to Asia – underscores his elite status. As the tournament poker landscape evolves, Chidwick remains at the forefront, blending experience, precision, and a relentless drive for excellence.
