Selbst and Trickett Butt Heads

Level 2 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Vanessa Selbst completed from the small blind, Sam Trickett checked his option, and the two players took a flop of {k-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. Selbst tossed out 10,000, Trickett raised to 38,000, and Selbst tank-called.

The turn was the {6-Clubs}, Selbst led out again - this time for 28,000 - and again Trickett raised. The Brit tossed out 78,000, Selbst called, and the river was the {5-Clubs}.

Selbst checked for the first time, Trickett plopped 128,000 in front of him, and Selbst mulled the decision over for a minute or two before calling.

Trickett rapped the felt, then turned over {q-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for queen-high. Selbst tabled {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} for top pair, and was awarded the pot.
