Selbst Pushes Back

Vanessa Selbst opened to 5,200 from under the gun plus one only to have Yuval Bronshtein three-bet to 11,200 from the hijack. It folded back around to Selbst and she dropped a call into the middle of the table.

The flop came down {8-Spades}{3-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and Selbst checked to the raiser. Bronshtein continued with a bet of 8,700 and Selbst came over the top for 35,300 total.

Bronshtein went into the tank for a few minutes before mucking his hand. The ESPN crew came over with the hole-card camera to capture the player's hands.

"I just get bluffed out of a huge pot and you want to embarrass me on TV?" asked Bronshtein while laughing.

After the hands were captured, the pot was pushed to Selbst who is now sitting on 322,000.
