Quang Nguyen defeats Soo Jo Kim for the High Roller title

Nang Quang Nguyen and Soo Jo Kim were at it again. Last time we saw both of these pros face off at heads up was at the APL Vietnam Main Event back in November 2018 where Nguyen went on to win it. At the recent APL Hanoi VN₫ 27,000,000 (~US$ 1,200) High Roller 1 event that saw 41 participate, Nguyen denied Kim the glory once again to ship the VN₫ 407,500,000 (~US$ 17,600) first prize.

This was more than a big relief for Nguyen who told Somuchpoker that he bricked every event he attended at APPT Manila 2019. Seems like home soil is home court advantage for the pro. He has won three major titles in Vietnam – APL Vietnam Main Event 2018,National Poker Championship Main Event 2017 and 2018 – and a runner-up finish at the APT Vietnam Main Event 2018.
