casts a happy eye around the scene of his legendary triumph. We've just walked away from a band of fans requesting selfies with th five-time bracelet winner. Nguyen takes ten minutes trying to walk ten feet at the Rio All-Suites Hotel and Casino, but he doesn't care. As we find somewhere secluded to talk, 100 people pass us in the corridors of the gigantic conference center, each face transforming from whichever resting expression it held to a smile, all from seeing Nguyen. Not many players at the 2017 World Series of Poker have that effect quite like Nguyen, and he's well aware of the privileged position he holds by inspiring such happiness.
