Sararat Rangsiwuthaporn, 36, an online gambling addict, is accused of swindling thousands of dollars from her victims before killing them with the chemical.
A court in Bangkok convicted her on Nov 20 for fatally poisoning her friend, Ms Siriporn Kanwong.
The two women met near Bangkok in April 2023 to release fish into the Mae Klong river as part of a Buddhist ritual.
Ms Siriporn collapsed and died shortly afterwards and investigators found traces of cyanide in her body.
