The Champ Arrives
With the TV cameras rolling, 2016 World Series of Poker Main Event Champ Qui Nguyen walked over to Table 109 and sat down in Seat 8, bearing a wide smile and clad in his trusty raccoon hat.
Nguyen conquered a field of 6,737 last year to claim a first-place prize of $8,005,310. Nguyen is already taking selfies with a few fans from nearby tables. However, his tournament poker activities since the Main Event last year have been anything but glamorous. He has yet to record a live cash since then.
We'll see if he can put together a strong run to defend his title, starting here on Day 1a.
