Selbst Pays Off Steinwachs
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Benjamin Steinwachs opened to 3,000 in the cutoff and Vanessa Selbst defended in the big blind.
Action checked through the K♥5♠3♠ flop to the A♥ turn at which point both players checked once more.
The river came 8♦ and Selbst checked one more time. Steinwachs, unwilling to go to a cheap showdown, fired off 10,000. Selbst took quite a bit of time before calling, seemingly with some reluctance. Steinwachs tabled A♣7♦ for top pair, which was good enough to take down the pot.
