Selbst Flops Broadway

Five players, including Vanessa Selbst in the cutoff, saw an {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop.

Three checks led a bet of 700 from the fourth player to act. Selbst bumped it to 1,600 and was called by the first player that had checked the flop. However, a re-raise to 6,425 came from the next player to act, forcing folds back around to Selbst. She called after a few moments, the check-caller folded, and the {3-Diamonds} hit the turn.

Both players checked to see the {4-Diamonds} river where Selbst's opponent bet 11,300. After about 30 seconds, Selbst softly announced all in. Her opponent went deep into the tank for about two minutes.

"You think I have ace-king?" he asked, before calling all in for another 21,000-ish.

Selbst tabled {K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} for the nuts, besting her opponent's hand to send him to the rail.
