[user252447]

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

There was an open for 250 from early position and online qualifier Martins Seilis raised it up to 850 from the button.
Vanessa Selbst was in the small blind and it’s never too early for a four-bet when she is at the table, making it 1,900 to go. The original raiser folded but Seilis elected to call.

The flop was and when Selbst checked Seilis opted to take the cautious line against the PokerStars Pro and checked too. They both checked the turn and when the river came the Selbst again checked.

Seilis decided to have a stab for 1,500. Selbst sized up the situation and raised him to 5,650. A chastened Seilis released his hand and the pot was pushed to Selbst.
