'''Can Kim Hua''' (born [[July 7]]) is a [[Vietnamese American]] professional [[poker]] player. Can Kim Hua is one of the most active players in professional poker today, and in the last six years he has finished [[poker jargon|in the money]] in more than 100 events. Despite his success, Can Kim Hua is not a well known player outside of the poker community.

In June 2006 at a pot limit World Series of Poker event, he held 7-2 against [[Rafe Furst]] with A-A. Rafe limped in and CK raised. After flopping a set of 7s, CK masterfully trapped his opponent. Rafe would later suckout and river one of the 2 remaining Aces to take the pot. In what many who witnessed this hand would call a beautifully foiled trap, CK lost most of his chips and would later bust out.

In August 2002 he finished fifth at the [[World Poker Tour]] (WPT) [[World Poker Tour season 1 results|first season]] Legends of Poker.

In January 2004 he finished fifth at the WPT [[World Poker Tour season 2 results|second season]] World Poker Open.

In June 2004 he made a five-way deal to split the money and play for the trophy in a preliminary event at the California State Poker Championship. However, when he saw the trophy Can Kim liked it so much that he changed his mind. He refused to accept the deal until the other four players agreed to declare him the winner and let him keep the trophy.[http://www.pokerpages.com/tournament/result9578.htm]

In October 2006 he finished sixth at the WPT [[World Poker Tour season 5 results|fifth season]] Festa Al Lago tournament.

As of 2007, his total live tournament winnings exceed $2,400,000.<ref>[http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=3339 Hendon Mob tournament results]</ref>
