Nam Le King of Poker Prince Tournament

Scotty Nguyen is known as the Prince of Poker, a title well-earned over years of superior poker play, including a World Series of Poker championship title. At the Cherokee Casino the Prince has his own tournament to test the mettle of other poker players, and the most recent champ of the Scotty Nguyen Poker Challenge is Nam Le. Le took home a championship bracelet that is itself worth $35,000, and plenty of cash as well, with $204,579. 107 players wanted that bracelet and prize, but Nam Le was the one up to the test. Le, 25 years old, recently won the World Poker Tour Bay 101 Shooting Star championship in May as well. That championship earned him $1.2 million.
