Arthur Tanimoto

After Michael Loncar opened to 100,000 in early position, Toan Nguyen called in the hijack and Arthur Tanimoto moved all in for 410,000.

Loncar folded, but Nguyen called.

Arthur Tanimoto: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Toan Nguyen: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}

The board came {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, pairing Nguyen's queen immediately and holding from there to send the likeable dentist home with ninth-place money.
