After three days of battling it out at World Seris of Poker Event #33: $1,500 Limit Hold’em, which was running at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, Jason Duong made a moment to remember after he won $130,062 and his first WSOP bracelet.

Jason Duong earned his title by beating the field of 491 entries. The last one he had to beat was Adam Tyburski, which he did after two and a half hours of back-and-forth battle. Duong came back to life in the heads-up battle after being left with just two big bets. After that point, he just continued to climb back up until he finished the job in style.

After the win, Duong said that he never doubted his chances of winning and added that after getting back from two big bets, he started to get more comfortable and more confident.
