Minh Ly won the World Poker Tour’s Doyle Brunson North American Poker Championship at the Bellagio yesterday. He beat out Dan Harrington in heads up play.

He actually bad beated Dan in the final hand to win. He had J-3 versus Dan’s A-5 and flopped a 3. Minh won $1,060,000 for first place. Action Dan took home $620,730 for second place.
