Vanessa Selbst opened under-the-gun to 1,300 and got just one caller: Michael Phelps in the big blind. Phelps check-called 1,200 on {J-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop and 3,400 on the {A-Spades} turn. The river was the {4-Spades} and with just 10,700 behind, Phelps checked for the third time. Selbst gave it some thoughts, and then decided to put Phelps all in by placing a big pile of 1,000 chips in the middle of the table. Phelps didn't want to do it and quietly folded his hand.
