Joey Weissman Eliminated in 20th Place ($59,980)

Joey Weissman - 20th Place
Joey Weissman - 20th Place

From under the gun plus one, Joey Weissman raised all in for 77,000. Action then folded to Tobias Reinkemeier, and he made the call from the cutoff seat before play fell on Rachid Ben Cherif on the button. He slid out a tall stack of yellow T25,000 chips for a reraise to 500,000.

Team PokerStars Pro Vanessa Selbst was next to act in the small blind. She looked at her hand, capped her cards with a chip, then tanked. After about two minutes, Selbst announced that she was all in.

Nick Schulman quickly folded from the big blind, and Reinkemeier also folded, leaving three-handed action with both Weissman and Selbst at risk.

Ben Cherif had the most chips and held the {A-Spades}{K-Spades}. Selbst had the {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}, and then the shortest stack, Weissman, held the {J-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}.

On the flop, the {Q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs} fell, and Selbst picked up a set of queens. The turn was the {J-Hearts}, which left Ben Cherif with a chance if a ten peeled on the river. Weissman was drawing dead at this point.

After the {A-Clubs} fell on fifth street, Selbst could breathe out and begin to collect her pot. She was all in for 659,000 and skiyrocketed all the way up to just under 1.5 million in chips.
