Doo Sik Nam had a quiet start, but sent Dinh Van Tien and Truong Toan Chan to the rail as he started to make his move.

Nam then busted a third player in a row as Nguyen Kim Truong fell in fourth place, with Duc Trung Vu closing the gap with the elimination of Khanh in third place.

In the final hand, Nam spiked a king on the flop with king-jack to beat the ace-ten of Vu to emerge triumphant.
