Selbst Shoves Early; Rebuy Chip to the Rescue

[user72279]

We caught up with the action on a flop of {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{9-Clubs}

and Vanessa Selbst, a member of the DeucesCracked contingency here in Melbourne was all in for her first 3,000 against not only one, but two opponents. The cards on their back revealed Selbst was drawing thin against a higher two pair, and a higher flush draw.

Selbst: {q-Hearts}

{q-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{7-Spades}

{2-Spades}

Seat 1: {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{j-Diamonds}

{6-Hearts}

Seat 3: {a-Hearts}

{a-Hearts}

{10-?}

{q-Diamonds}

{j-Hearts}

The turn was the {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

and the river was the {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

giving the player in seat 3 the nut flush for the win. He collected the 9,000 pot and also used his rebuy chip to give him him 12,000. Selbst and the gentleman in seat 2 both used their rebuy chip for another 3,000.
