Torsten Boker limped in early position, Melanie Hennigan completed in the small blind, and Frankie Zeta checked in the big blind.
The trio saw a flop of 10♥7♣2♦ and it checked over to Boker who bet 175,000. Hennigan then moved all in for about 1,750,000, prompting Zeta to fold and Boker to consider his decision.
After a moment of thought, Boker tossed his cards into the muck.
"Nice hand, a lot of respect," said Boker as he showed A♦10♦ for top pair, top kicker.

As the grind of the final day at the PokerStars Open Philadelphia series wore on back in April, Edward Leonard insisted that winning was not his focus in the $1,100 Main Event.
All 146 returning players were looking to make a deep run at Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia, and it took more than 18 hours of play to reach the final three contenders. The trio paused the clock to look at a deal, one that left Leonard finally realizing what he had just accomplished.
After reaching an agreement with Guan Huang and Frank Funaro, it was time to let all of that exhaustion and emotion out.
“I feel pretty great,” the newly crowned champion told PokerNews after the deal was concluded. “It’s been a pretty sick start to the year for me, definitely didn’t expect this one but I mean, I ran pretty pure.”
