Selbst Doubles Into the Chip Lead

Vanessa Selbst

Team PokerStars Pro Vanessa Selbst looked down at the {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts} in early position and made it 50,000 to go. Action folded around to Ole Schemion and he defended from the big blind with the {A-Hearts}{8-Spades}. Both players then checked the {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop, and Schemion led out for 67,000 on the {10-Clubs} turn. Selbst, who held a full house, thought long and hard before raising to 141,000, and Schemion called after thinking about it for about 40 seconds.

Schemion was drawing dead headed to the river, which came the {2-Diamonds}. Schemion slowed down with a check, and Selbst took her time before betting 465,000. Schemion then moved all in and Selbst snap-called off for 1.204 million. Selbst’s fiancé smiled big on the rail while her girl took over the chip lead; meanwhile, a solemn-looking Schemion dropped to 1.5 million.

Bryn Kenney - 6th Place

Ole Schemion opened to 48,000 with {j-Spades}{j-Clubs} from under the gun, Bryn Kenney three-bet shoved for 433,000 with {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} from the cutoff, and the action folded back to Schemion, who snap-called.

Schemion was well ahead of Kenney, and it was all but over when the flop fell {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{j-Hearts}. The hand was official over when the {5-Clubs} turned, and Kenney was already headed off the stage by the time the {3-Hearts} completed the board.

Kenney will earn sixth-place money, while Schemion has eliminated three players in just 12 hands, and now has the lead with over 2.8 million chips.

Tobias Reinkemeier - 7th Place

Two Germans began the final table, but now only one remains as Tobias Reinkemeier was just eliminated by Ole Schemion on Hand #10 of the final table.

It happened when Schemion raised to 48,000 from early position with {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} only to have Reinkemeier three-bet to 130,000 frm the button with {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}. Both blinds got out of the way, and Schemion thought for a bit before moving all in. Reinkemeier quaickly called off for 638,000 and it was off to the races.

Reinkemeier, who is accustomed to playing High Roller events, sipped a soda while waiting for the flop, which came down {4-Hearts}{4-Spades}{J-Hearts}. Reinkemeier was left wanting, and the {2-Hearts} turn meant he needed either an ace or king on the river to stay alive, but it wasn’t in the cards as the {9-Hearts} peeled off. Reinkemeier grabbed his drink, graciously shook hands with the remaining players, and then took the walk of shame off the stage in seventh place for $174,940.

Reinkemeier Wins a Four-Way Pot

Tobias Reinkemeier opened for 50,000 under the gun with {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} and received a call from Shaun Deeb, who held {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} in middle position. Ole Schemion then called from the button with {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}, Bryn Kenney called with {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} from the big blind, and four players took a flop of {4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}.

Kenney checked and Reinkemeier continuation bet 105,000. It proved enough to get the job done as one by one his opponents folded.

Micah Raskin Eliminated in 8th Place ($129,940)

It didn't take long for the first elimination of the day, and no surprise it was the short stack.

It happened when Ole Schemion opened for 48,000 under the gun with {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades} and a short-stacked Micah Raskin moved all in for 344,000 from the hijack holding {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}. Action folded back around to Schemion and he snap-called.

“Ace please, dealer,” Raskin said. “Right in the window.” The dealer did not oblige, but the {9-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{K-Spades} flop did pair his jack. However, he needed even more help and would find none as the {7-Clubs} appeared on the turn followed by the {7-Spades} on the river. Raskin shook hands with the remaining players and then exited the stage in eighth place.

Aces for Watson

Mike Watson opened to 45,000 with {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} from early position, Tobias Reinkemeier called on the button with {9-Spades}{7-Spades}, and the flop fell {9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. Watson led out for 60,000, and Reinkemeier called.

The turn was the {3-Diamonds}, Watson led again - this time for 165,000 - and Reinkemeier tank-called.

A third diamond - the {8-Diamonds} - completed the board, and Watson slid out one million in yellow T25,000 chips. Reinkemeier, who was faced with an all-in bet, removed his sunglasses and studied Watson. He eventually folded, and Watson raked in the pot.
