The great player Vanessa Selbst - myth or truth

[jj20002]

Numbers speak alone here,

on Vanessa:

Two wsop Bracelets
Five WSOP final tables
Two WPT final tables
Two EPT titles
Six EPT final tables

more than usd9 millions in tournaments prize, and therefore the the top-earning female tournament player of all time,

i think this is more than enough to consider Vanessa one of the ´monsters´ when speaking about poker players

Did you know that she cashes in 59 tournaments for the last 7 years (i`m sure the most of the participants in this post have more), and 7,1M from her 9,5M lifetime earnings are from only 9 of the tournaments.

Citing these figures without putting them in context is a rather weak argument at best. So what if 15% of her 59 cashes account for 75% of her winnings? How many players who you consider great don't have a high proportion of their total winnings from a small proportion of their cashes?

If they wanted to market a woman in poker they would use the beautiful Vanessa Rouso

She is a pokerstars pro because she is good.

the results speaks for it self, with over 9 million in winnings .
with many other players that won tournaments like the wsop going broke, think she is up there with top players.

She is one of the best players in the world and in one game that the most are mens and only 9.5 millions shows a lot.

Was that a bad turn call by Sands USA?
Pot is $1mm. Call is $350k.
Pot odds are 35%.
He has a flush draw or Ace draw (9+3 outs = 12)
24% chance of hitting his card on the river
Should have folded, right?

No because implied odds, and villain has bluffs in her range,

 

[RickAversion]

Please explain the implied odds impact on this hand

She has bluffs in her range... but if the flush draw hits, wouldn't that make it less likely that she would bluff?

Evidently not, they also likely have extensive history
