Eric Siegel moved all in for 855,000 in the hijack, Benjamin Boston reshoved in the cutoff, and the rest of the table folded.
Eric Siegel: K♦K♥
Benjamin Boston: A♠K♣
Siegel was ahead in the massive cooler but needed to avoid an ace to double up. The board ran out Q♠6♠5♣9♣4♥ and Siegel's kings stayed in the lead to earn him the pot.
"This structure isn't built for these two hands not to get all in," Siegel said as he took in the pot.
