Toan Nguyen opened the action with a raise to 450,000 from the small blind. William Sandberg defended from the big blind to take them to a flop.
The J♥Q♦3♥ flop led to a bet of 350,000 from Nguyen. Sandberg called once again.

William Sandberg: J♠5♠
Toan Nguyen: K♣9♠
Sandberg made the correct call with his pair of jacks, but Nguyen could still win with a king or ten.
The A♥ river did not change the standings as Sandberg secured the double.
