Selbst Soars
The flop read 
and Vanessa Selbst bet out. Her opponent on the button then raised, and Selbst three-bet all in. The shorter stacked button player made the call and was at risk.
Selbst: 
Opponent: 
Selbst was ahead for now, but any ace or any heart would change that. The 
on the turn was the perfect card for Selbst. Now all the button could hit would be a non-nine heart.
The 
on the river allowed for Selbst to breathe easy as she was awarded the pot.
