Andrew Nguyen and Anthony Vidmer have been squaring with each other in big pots all afternoon. The most recent was the biggest pot of the tournament so far. Nguyen opened for 85,000 and Vidmer raised to 170,000 behind him. The blinds released and action was back on Nguyen. He responded by re-raising to the tune of an additional 505,000.

Vidmer announced all in and Nguyen called.

Nguyen: {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}
Vidmer: {A-Spades} {K-Spades}

The dealer spread the {2-Spades} {9-Spades} {K-Diamonds} flop. Nguyen couldn't watch with so many outs to fade and walked off stage - depending on his rail's reaction to know if his hand would hold. Vidmer used his, "One time dealer, one time!"

The turn came {J-Hearts}.

The river came {10-Hearts} and Nguyen's aces held. Vidmer slid to 1.6 million and Nguyen has around 4.4 million
