Seat 4: Thuyen Doan (Williamsburg, Virginia) -- 369,500

Thuyen Doan
Thuyen Doan
Thuyen Doan is the last woman standing in this event. She outlasted a lot of solid players, both men and women, to get to this point. At the start of Day 2, Doan was one of the tournament short stacks, but a key pot against John Phan on the bubble allowed her to survive to the money, and from that point she didn't look back. She seeks to be the second woman to take a WSOP bracelet in an open event this year. Doan starts the day as the third-lowest stack at the table, so she has some work ahead of her if she wants to have a shot at this title.
