Scotty Nguyen: The legend of poker is back in Europe
After a participation in the World Series of Poker (WSOP), the "Prince of Poker" is back on the world scene of poker. Scotty Nguyen passes in Europe to participate in the European Poker Tour of Barcelona. For this awaited return, leaving Spain empty-handed would be for him inconceivable thing as he announced: "I go there to gain and pocket money, baby! ». The legend of poker known and recognized for his talent, but also by his legendary swaggers launched this year a challenge just like his character. Indeed, before the World Series of Poker (WSOP) he declared publicly that he would leave the circuit of poker if he would not succeed in gaining at least $4 millions during the WSOP 2009. But his results were disastrous, less than $40,000 of gain. We sometimes wonder if this announcement aimed only at creating a media buzz around him and his new sponsor.
Recently the famous player of poker native to Vietnam has recognized that WSOP does not occurred to him and that since then, he turned the page on this misadventure and is ready for battle with his opponents. For this European tour, he has only one goal: to win. Remind that in 1998, after his victory in the main event of WSOP, Scotty Nguyen became world champion. He is the only player in the world who wins both the WSOP Main Event and the $ 50,000 WSOP H.O.R.S.E. His tournaments prize list makes him one of the greatest poker players of all time.
