Just coming back from dinner break, a big hand found place at table 12. With the big blind not yet back from dinner, Walid Habib opened to 1,100 from the hijack position. Next door neighbor Vanessa Selbst shoved all in for 9,150 and the button and small blind quickly folded.

Action was thus back on Habib who gave it some good thoughts as he counted out the 9,150 for the call. Selbst tried to convince Habib not to call and said honestly she wasn't looking to go to showdown. At one point she even motioned to shove Habib's 9,150 back, making sure he wouldn't slip it over the line by accident. In the end her efforts were not rewarded though as Habib called anyway. Selbst turned her hand over with a painful look on her face. Habib had the best hand with his {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, Selbst was looking for some help with her {A-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}.

After the {K-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{8-Spades}-flop it was Selbst who got up from the table. She didn't motion to sit down again after the {K-Diamonds} hit the turn but all of the sudden she had some new outs. The {8-Clubs} fell on the river and Selbst finally sat back in her seat andgot her stack doubled.
