Men Nguyen was in a great mood as he slowly but surely widened his chip lead on Brandon Adams. On their penultimate hand, Nguyen asked, "What have you got there Brian?"
"350," replied Adams, without correcting Men as to Adams' proper first name.

Men "The Master" Nguyen Wins Event #10: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship ($394,800)
Congratulations to Men "The Master" Nguyen who has claimed his seventh WSOP bracelet in a dramatic final day of Event #10: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship.
Both Nguyen and runner-up Brandon Adams had some challenging moments throughout the day, with both being short and all in on different occasions. However they showed great fighting qualities and with chips at their disposal they both were dangerous in contrasting ways. Adams was all class and composure as his tight, solid image was utilized perfectly, while Nguyen's in-your-face aggression was relentless on the final table.
There were times where Nguyen looked like he was equally as likely to tilt off all of his chips or pass out on the floor, but in the end he did what he does best, and ran away with the title as he collected his seventh WSOP bracelet and $394,800 in prize money. He proved once again why he is known simply as "The Master"! Congratulations Men!
