Last Hand Double For Selbst

The ESPN main stage was set to play one last final hand before the table ended for the night. We don't know exactly how the action went, but after a series of raises Vanessa Selbst managed to get all in and at risk literally by the hand of her opponent. Lucky for Selbst she had a dream scenario.

Selbst flipped over {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} while her opponent mustered up {K-}{k-} for second best. The flop blanked out for both players, but the {A-} on the turn guaranteed Selbst would be returning to the Main Event, returning with a monster stack.
