Selbst Busts Opponent

With the board reading {4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{4-Spades}, Vanessa Selbst forced an opponent all in, and they called.

Selbst: {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Opponent: {6-Hearts}{6-Spades}

Selbst had her opponent crushed, and just for kicks she filled up after the {9-Diamonds} turned. The {j-Clubs} on the river was irrelevant, Selbst's opponent hit the rail, and the PokerStars Team Pro raked in the pot to push her stack above 60,000 chips.
