Pastor Blessed With a Double

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

We've just heard a bit of commotion from the featured table, so we scurried over to try and see what we could see. From our vantage point several tables away, we could only gather a few tidbits of information. Here are the facts, such that they are:

  • Juan Manuel Pastor has just doubled through Vanessa Selbst.
  • Pastor was very short on chips to begin the hand, perhaps under 40,000.
  • Selbst was not short on chips to begin the hand, sitting pretty with around 500,000.
  • Pastor's hand contained a ten and a paint card
  • Selbst's hand was also not a pocket pair.
  • There was a ten on the flop.
  • The turn was the {3-Hearts} and the river was the {6-Clubs}, and neither of those improved Selbst.
  • Selbst still has more chips than Pastor, and she brushed off the loss with barely a shrug. Her stack hardly shows the evidence of that double up she's just granted.
