Born in Taiwan, Chen An Lin has been playing poker for more than 10 years. He was able to join the ranks of being called a Pokerstars pro in 2015.

He is no longer part of Pokerstars pro, but It was not long before Chen-An Lin instead found a new home at J88.

His recent wins include taking the first place of J88PT Ultra Stack Taipei, and the second place is J88 online team pro-Gshan

But how did he started playing poker?

We asked the man himself how he started out.

Coffee break and questions.

How did you start playing poker?

I started with home games, back in 2009 when it was Chinese New Year. I was with my friends, and they invited me to sit down and play. It was the first time I participated and I became fascinated with it.

2009 must have been a great year for An Lin, the first entry of his win was also 2009. He came second place in the Macau Poker Cup no-limit hold-em event.

After that win, Chen An lin won the Macau poker cup No-limit hold em.

He was a rising star and in 2015, he became part of the Pokerstars Pro.

The pandemic

Due to the pandemic, Live poker events were cut short. what was An Lin doing during the time?

I stayed at home with my family and just play online poker at J88, J88 has a nice app and easy to play. Although the pandemic is severe, there are still many poker tournaments in Taiwan to play. 

J88

J88 deal is good for me, They are very supportive of my promotion in Taiwan. They are very active and supportive of live tournaments in Taiwan As well. They value the Taiwan market, and continue to hold live events in Taiwan every year. J88 is active in helping the Taiwan market to grow.

Goals for 2021

My goal for 2021, is to participate in as many events as possible. Taiwan’s handled the epedemic quite well.  We can still hold live events with few restrictions. Poker in Taiwan is very good and I will focus on Taiwan’s live games.

Messages to players out there

Haha, my English ability is still not very good, but what I want to say is that I hope everyone can be healthy and happy in 2021. Poker is a lifelong sport. Take care of yourself and family. I look forward to the big live events after the epidemic is over. I hope to see you all soon!

Hope to see you soon poker playas!
