Tommy Nguyen is Due for a Second Bracelet

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Canadian poker pro Tommy Nguyen is back in action for another run at the World Series of Poker. Based in Toronto, Nguyen credits his stamina and focus at the tables to a disciplined mindset routine that includes supplements, healthy eating, regular workouts, quality sleep, and meditation—all essential tools for enduring long days on the felt.

Nguyen’s favorite event is Event #20: $1,500 SHOOTOUT, scheduled for June 4, 2025, and he’s already off to a strong start this summer, cashing in all three events he’s played so far.

Nguyen first made headlines in 2018 when he captured a WSOP bracelet in Event #48: $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em MONSTER STACK, and he’s been crushing ever since, racking up over $1 million in live tournament earnings. With momentum on his side, Nguyen is a player to watch this series.
