The Men Nguyen Show

Men Nguyen
Men Nguyen
Men "The Master" Nguyen was quiet for most of the day, but he has been lighting up the table now that he has some newfound chips. Apparently, drinking a beer and tripling up are good for one's mood. It also helps that his friend Chau Giang was just moved to his table, but even before that, Men has been morphing into quite the comedian.

The comedy routine has spanned from poker to sports to beer and bottled water, but at the moment, the talk of the table revolves around glasses. A player in Seat 1 is wearing sunglasses when he's involved in pots, and Men just commented that he looks like James Bond. "Oh-oh-seven," he said with a big laugh. That prompted Chau to take off his own glasses and give them a thorough inspection. He mumbled something about a recent pot he had played, and Men let out another big laugh. The rest of the table seems to be enjoying the company of those two men, as well.
