What made it hard
Nguyen had $1,055,000 behind, more than either player already all in, so a call would end the betting. Senor Tilt had 3-bet and then moved all in for $660,000 over Nguyen's 4-bet, and Kabrhel had already called all in for $226,000. Calling cost $390,000 more, into a pot of $1,157,500. To win the main pot his ace-ten had to beat both of them. A call put Nguyen in the $679,500 main pot with all three players and in a $868,000 side pot against Senor Tilt alone.
Chance to win when the money went in
Each hand's share of the pot across every way the rest of the board could come, ties split, with every hand in the pot face up. At the table, nobody could see the others' cards.
Main pot: $679,500
Side pot: $868,000
Who got lucky, in dollars
What each player collected, minus their expected share of the pot when the money went in. The cards still to come decided the difference.
