Vanessa Selbst Wins Second World Series of Poker Bracelet

The amazing Vanessa Selbst has been overshadowed by the Big Drop For One Drop million dollar buy-in tournament.  Selbst won her second World Series of Poker bracelet in the $2,500 Buy-In Six-Handed Ten-Game Mix (Event #52).

The Yale University Law School graduate and poker superstar from New York City defeated a tough tournament lineup of 421 players, Nolan Dalla reported on the World Series of Poker website Monday. 

She pocketed a whopping $244,259 in prize money.  The online star and poker icon was also presented with her second WSOP gold bracelet.

Dalla called Selbst "the best tournament player in the game today."

Selbst has won back to back titles with regards to women in open events.

Poker legend Doyle Brunson expressed dissatisfaction with the little press Ms. Selbst was getting on Monday.Lock-Poker-062712AL.jpg

Why isn't a lot more attention payed to @VanessaSelbst for her 2nd bracelet? A second for a young lady isn't worthy of publicity? Wow!

And he is so right.  Congrats to Vanessa Selbst.
