Selbst Wins a Couple

Level 23

2-7 Limit Triple Draw

Folded to Vanessa Selbst on the button, she made it two bets to go and only Chris Bjorin in the big blind would make the call. Selbst then drew three cards and Bjorin two cards.

Bjorin led here, then called the raise from Selbst. Both players drew one card and then checked, drawing one card again.

This time Bjorin would check then think hard before folding to a bet from Selbst.

Vanessa Wins a Few More

Level 23

2-7 No-Limit Single Draw

Vanessa Selbst opened the action with a raise from the cutoff and Tommy Hang made the call out of the big blind. Hang drew two and Selbst also drew two.

Hang then led with a bet of 40,000 and after a few moments thought, Selbst made the call. Here is how the hands looked at showdown.

Selbst: {2-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Hang: {2-Clubs}{4-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{10-Spades}

Selbst's ten-seven was just stronger than Hang's ten-eight as Selbst raked in a few more chips.

Julian Renard Eliminated in 7th Place ($21,645)

It took just around ten minutes to lose our first player at the "unofficial" final table, which brings us to the official final table of six. The player who has gone home as our final table bubble was Julian Renard. It was during a hand of stud against Vanessa Selbst. Here is how the cards were drawn out.

Selbst: {x-}{x-} / {9-Clubs}{q-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs} / {x-}
Renard: {x-}{x-} / {a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} / {x-}

Thomas Chambers brought it in with a {6-Hearts} showing, then Renard completed with his {a-Clubs}. Selbst then called with the {9-Clubs} out front and Chambers got out of the way. On fourth street, Renard check-called a bet from Selbst. On fifth street, both players checked. On sixth, Renard check-raised, leaving himself with just a few thousand behind. Selbst then made the re-raise and Renard was all in. Selbt tabled {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}, having two-pair, while Renard held {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} in the hole.

The final card for Renard was a {j-Spades}, which left him still behind Selbt's two-pair. The meaningless {8-Clubs} was added to Selbst's hand and she raked in the pot, while Renard was sent home in seventh place.

With that, we are at our final table!
