About
In 1967, he dropped out of school at age 13 and became a bus driver to help support his family.

Later in 1978, Men Nguyen received political asylum from the United States and settled in Los Angeles, California. In 1986 he became an American citizen.

In 1984 Men Nguyen went on a journey to Las Vegas, Nevada and played poker for the first time in his life. He continued to go every weekend and lose hundreds of dollars, earning him the nickname "Money Machine". Men Nguyen quickly mastered the game and won his first tournament in 1987.

In 1991 one of his students gave him the nickname "The Master", and now he is widely known as "Men the Master". Men Nguyen donates a portion of the money he earns through tournaments and tutoring to charities in Vietnam, and in 1996 built a kindergarten in Vietnam.
