Check out 'From Vietnam to Vegas!' a book about the life of Qui Nguyen

Nguyen immigrated from Saigon in 1999. He soon opened a nail salon, where he earned enough money to facilitate his love of gambling. He describes baccarat as his favorite game but discovered poker as well during his time in California. His first recorded cashes came in tiny $20 limit hold'em tournaments in Los Angeles, but he eventually matriculated to Las Vegas and raised the stakes.
