WOW!
I wonder what makes folks from South East Asia such good poker players?? Year after year guys with ties to Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia win big tournamnets. Then you have the Prince of poker, Scottie Nguyen. He's on top baby!
Congrats to Jerry.

Last years 1st place rake was over 12 Mil..... Looks like they are still paying off the 10k they put on their card to play last year.

I'm surprised the 1st place money is millions less than it was last year.
