Michael Saltzburg Eliminated in 2nd Place ($150,849)

Michael Saltzburg - 2nd Place
Michael Saltzburg - 2nd Place

2-7 Limit Triple Draw

The last hand of the tournament began with Vanessa Selbst opening the button. Michael Saltzburg called and then drew two. Selbst drew one and then Saltzburg led with a bet. Selbst then raised and Saltzburg called. Both players stood pat and then Saltzburg was all in for his last remaining chips.

At this point, Selbst quickly tabled {7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}, holding the nuts. Saltzburg could do nothing but stare at the felt as Selbst was out of her chair waiting for Saltzburg's cards to go in the muck. That's exactly where they went, and Selbst was over to her rail to celebrate.

With that, Saltzburg goes home in a very gallant second place, collecting $150,849, while Selbst wins her second World Series of Poker gold bracelet, solidifying herself as one of poker's greats.
