Nam Le PokerNam Le is a poker player of Vietnamese descent, and was born in Irvine, California.  He has a birthday of September 10, but nobody really knows the year. Nam Le may be the cousin of Tuan Le, who has won three World Poker Tour events, but we haven’t been able to ask him.  They may also just be good friends.  Tuan helped teach Nam how to play poker, and Nam has proven that he has learned his lessons well.

As of January 2012, Nam Le has won over $6.1 million in poker tournament winnings, and has really taken off as a poker player. His victories include winning the World Poker Tour Season 4 Bay 101 Shooting Stars event on March 3, 2006 for $1,172,800.  In addition to his WPT title, Nam Le also has the following major accomplishments (for over $100,000):
