Selbst Pays Off Steinwachs

Cottrell van Wingerden

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.

Benjamin Steinwachs	73,000 -26,000	-26,000

Arriving on a completed board of 5♦8♣J♦2♦3♠, Ibrahim Naim had made a bet of 14,000 into a pot of 35,000 chips from the big blind.

Jeffrey Gilmore then jammed all in for 38,000, sending Naim into the tank. Eventually, he decided he could not fold and put in a call.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Three players saw the 8♠5♥4♥ flop and Ismir Dupljak checked to Drew Hart who dropped a bet of 5,500 across the line. Matthew Mendez was on the button and jammed for 32,500, Dupljak called and Hart jammed all-in, putting Dupljak at risk. After a few moments, Dupljak mucked his hand.

Matthew Mendez: J♥9♥ All in
Drew Hart: 5♠5♦

Hart flopped a set of fives but Mendez still had outs as he flopped a flush draw, although the 3♦ turn and 2♦ river were no help as he left the table.

Schoenberg Flips One to the Rail, Selbst Lays Down a Pair

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Vanessa Selbst raised to 3,500 under the gun before Jeremy Schoenberg three-bet to 10,500 in the cutoff. The small blind then moved all in for 31,500.

Selbst went into the tank for around a minute before she folded, but Schoenberg snap-called.

All-In Player: J♠J♥ All in
Jeremy Schoenberg: A♠K♦

"It's a classic," the at-risk player said, but he wound up on the wrong side of the coin flip after the board ran out 7♥A♦3♥5♠3♣ to send him to the rail.

"I had you beat pre-flop," Selbst told Schoenberg after the hand, saying she folded two tens.
