Takuto Komiya is an emerging tournament poker player from Japan. As of late 2025, he has established himself as a specialized “Turbo” and “In The Money” (ITM) finisher on the East Asian circuit, with a particularly active presence in the Asian Poker Tour (APT) and the Japan Open Poker Tour (JOPT).

Career Earnings & Global Ranking

As of December 2025, Takuto Komiya has recorded steady professional growth within the regional rankings:

Total Live Earnings: ~$1,000+ (The Hendon Mob)
Global Poker Index (GPI) Ranking: 99,085th (Current)
2025 Number of Cashes Rank: Top 20,000 globally.
National Standing: Actively climbing within the top tier of Japanese mid-stakes circuit players.

2024–2025 Season: The “Turbo” Specialist

The 2025 season has been the most active period of Komiya’s career, characterized by deep runs in fast-paced structures where quick decision-making and short-stack mastery are essential.

APT Taipei 2025: Recorded a notable finish in the No Limit Hold’em – Hyper Turbo event, demonstrating his proficiency in high-speed blind structures and “push/fold” mathematics.
Japan Open Poker Tour (JOPT) Tokyo: A regular participant in Japan’s largest domestic series at the Belle Salle Takadanobaba. He has successfully navigated several large fields in the “NLH Warm-up” and “Lucky 7’s” formats, which often feature over 500 entries.
Regional Consistency: Throughout late 2025, Komiya has maintained a high volume of play in Taipei and South Korea, positioning himself as a consistent traveling “reg” who exploits the aggressive tendencies of the East Asian player pool.

Playing Style & Background

Residing in Japan, Komiya is part of a dedicated cohort of players who bridge the gap between Japan’s unique amusement-prize poker culture and the international cash-prize circuit.

His play style is characterized by:

Hyper-Turbo Specialization: His results are concentrated in accelerated formats, suggesting a strong grasp of unexploitable short-stack strategies and the mental resilience required for high-variance play.
Large-Field Navigation: Consistently reaching the money in domestic Japanese series—which draw massive amateur and professional fields—proves his ability to handle diverse player types and varying levels of aggression.
Tactical Discipline: Live reporting often highlights his patient approach during the “bubble” phases of tournaments, a trait that has contributed to his climbing GPI ranking and high ITM rate in 2025.
