Xiao Ruan Wins $1,125 No-Limit Hold'em

 

Xiao Ruan

There were seven players that returned for the second and final day of action in the $1,125 no-limit hold'em, but in less than two hours, Xiao Ruan had amassed all of the chips in play and won his first ring along with $28,195.

The former investment manager turned to poker full-time three years ago for his sole income. He plays primarily cash games and has one rule that, luckily for him, he broke in order to play this event. Ruan limits himself to one tournament a month, but when he came in to play $5/$10 cash games, none were running and there was a long list to play $5/$5.

He hopped in the $1,125 no-limit hold'em, still with plans of playing the main event, and went on to win his first live tournament. He still plans on playing the main event tomorrow.
