    ESPN's coverage of WSOP
    Day one they make Vanessa Selbst's table the TV table

    She's a Jewish homosexual female self proclaimed social justice warrior so she's like a diamond studded gold plated unicorn for ESPN
    She proceeds to bust out on day one but they still continue to talk about how great she is hours after she busted out

    You can also tell how clueless the commentators are about poker (besides Esfandiari) when they have less time for scripts and editing

            It aired yesterday around 1PM CT but I'm not sure when it's airing again. You'll definitely be able to see that hand with Selbst somewhere on Youtube soon. She lost with trip aces to quad 7s lol.

              Wow, just searched for it. Crazy hand.



              I've never really liked Vanessa, so I don't feel too bad.

                Have to admit, I've never gone to that level and considered suits like was done in this hand. Not sure it's ever come up though

                        I've folded set over set a few times. Folded aces preflop maybe twice.

                        Not sure I could fold a boat there though.

                          Dane, I've Folded set on very wet board. Like 4contiguous to Straight or 4 to Flush. One problem is, those are also very bluffy boards.

                          How the hell did u fold AA pre-flop? I do think guys should be willing to lay down more Post-Flop. Shouldn't feel like the AA = an albatross you have to take to the grave.

                              One was at a final table. At least 3 people were already all-in, I was short stacked, and guaranteed to cash more by folding. Another one was a satellite with a similar situation except I had a larger stack and could fold my way to cashing. Not even sure if the final table fold was the right move. The satellite I'm fairly sure it was

                                  No doubt on a satellite bubble or close to it, its the right move.

                                    The satellite hand I understand. If it's a matter of advancing, I'm sure it's the right move.

                                        I saw it happen one time live in Daytona. Guy lost with like quad 4s when some fish backdoored a steel wheel with A3s after calling an all in on the flop. The chaos and name calling that ensued rivaled the old centaur/bite me battles

                                          It's probably where I play now. I'm not 100%, but I think you're on the other side of the state these days. There are some amazingly interesting people at the Daytona card club.

                                                  Man I met some girls from Pensacola on a bachelorette trip in Gulfport some years ago. They were some horny cajun girls! I screwed one girl so good she cried! Sadly i just don't have that talent anymore

                                                    I'm never sympathetic for Selbst when she busts. Acts like a douche a ton at the tables. A lot of the...how can you call there?! What do you think you can beat with that call?! She was very tame with this cooler.

                                                      ElNin, you're right. She was very tame here.

                                                      I commented in the Poker forum. I don't like her. She often overplays her hand. But that's her style, and I have to admit she's had good success.

                                                      The flip-side is that sometimes she gets opponent betting into her when she has the goods. See KK hand where Ole Schemion is betting into her Full House.
                                                      Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?
