Selbst Muscles Out Opponent

The button raised to 700 preflop and Vanessa Selbst called from the small blind. The big blind also came along for the ride and we had three players to the flop. The dealer spread three cards in the middle of the table and they looked like this, {8-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}.

It was here on the flop that Selbst came out swinging, betting 1,400. The big blind folded and the button flat called.

The {A-Spades} on the turn saw another Selbst bet, this time for 2,700. Again the button paid the river admission price and the dealer felled the last card. The {9-Spades} made its appearance on the felt and for the third time in a row Selbst bet out, this time for 3,700. The button took his time, draining 35 seconds or so off the clock before depositing his cards in the muck.
