Tien Son Nguyen: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Mingyang Liu: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

The flop came down {9-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and Liu's jacks were still in the lead. A {6-Spades} came on the turn and Nguyen would still need to connect. The river did just that as the {a-Spades} hit the table, giving Nguyen a pair of aces, enough to take down the pot and eliminate his opponent.
