In 2003, Liu reached the final of the IBSF Under 21 World Championship, in Taupō, New Zealand. Liu faced Neil Robertson, with the score being 11–5 in the Australian's favour.[1]
Liu was the first Chinese player to qualify for the final stages of a ranking tournament, the 2004 Welsh Open. To get to the tournament, Liu played four qualifying matches, the fourth against Fergal O'Brien. Liu was eventually knocked out of the tournament by Marco Fu.
Liu's best performance in a ranking tournament to date has been in the 2007 Grand Prix, where he reached the quarter-finals, where he lost to Marco Fu again, 0–5.
In 2010 Liu became the first Chinese player to attain the World Snooker coaching badge.
Since 2008 Liu has been managed by Romford-based Grove Leisure and is a stablemate of Ronnie O'Sullivan.
Liu finished the 2011/2012 season outside the top 64, therefore he would be relegated from the main tour and dropped from the world rankings.
