Tournament host
This is also something special, because, as far as I know, it's the first person from Taiwan, from your country?

What can I say? It feels great to be the first from Taiwan to win a bracelet. And hopefully this will inspire other players.
Chen only went professional with poker at the age of 29. He taught himself how to play, relying on math skills and psychological strategies. Now 37, he has a collection of trophies under his belt, and even beat his childhood hero Phil Ivey. But at first his parents fought his career choice.

I even borrowed NT$10,000 from a friend. I started playing from the very smallest games, and very, very gradually my results got better, and I got into bigger and bigger games.
Chen's success eventually won over his skeptical parents.

To play poker well, you have to think logically, you need a good grasp of mathematical probability, and you have to be able to work out what's going on in your opponent's mind. It's very different from games like roulette or baccarat.
Texas hold'em is a demanding version of poker, requiring players to stay sharp at all times. Chen's YouTube videos provide young players with a wealth of advice and tips. He's Taiwan's first poker champion, but he won't be the last.
