Noted female poker pro Vanessa Selbst is among the most successful on the live circuit and, once again, she caps off another one million dollar year.

The Brooklyn, New York native is closing in on $5 million lifetime tournament earnings.  Her biggest win came just over a year ago at the Partouche Poker Tour Main Event – No Limit Hold’em, where her first place finish resulted in nearly $2 million.  Months prior to this, Selbst won the PokerStars NAPT Mohegan Sun Season 1 NAPT Main Event – No Limit Hold’em.

Here's how she did it (source PokerStars.com Blog):

  NBC National Heads-Up Championship 2011, Las Vegas: $ 75,000

  EPT San Remo: $10,931

Earlier this year, Ms. Selbst wrote:  "I'm excited for what the future holds, but of course, as always with us poker players, it can change any minute, so who really knows? That's why I'm constantly trying to live in the 'now' and not feel bound by future plans."
