Vanessa Selbst Returns to The WPT

One of the most respected and accomplished poker players in the world has returned to the felt. Vanessa Selbst has returned to competitive play as well as teaching with LearnWPT, the official education platform for the WPT.

Vanessa��s Return to the Poker World

After her departure from poker in 2017, Vanessa went to work at one of the world��s most successful hedge funds and put her knowledge of risk analysis and positive expected value bets to good use. Known for her fearless play on the felt, her talents translated well to making calculated investments based on macroeconomics and world events.

After starting a family, Vanessa has prioritized flexibility for her schedule and time - making poker the perfect fit once again. Like a true champion, it didn��t take long for Vanessa to return to form as she made deep runs in the WPT Borgata Poker Open in September 2019 and WPT FallsView Main Event in February 2020.

Despite the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic shuttering live poker stops around the world, Vanessa has returned to the online felt and is looking forward to playing live events once again.

Some of Vanessa's Accomplishments:

  • 3 World Series of Poker Bracelets
  • Multiple World Poker Tour Final Tables
  • Nearly $12 Million in live tournament winnings
  • Highest Earning Female Poker Player

Teaching Her Style at LearnWPT

With over 10 years of teaching experience and one of the original creators of poker training videos, Vanessa has coached some of the top poker players in the game today.

LearnWPT is bringing Vanessa's aggressive winning style and championship mindset to LearnWPT Members through upcoming Strategy Episodes (Members can watch Vanessa's first Episode now).

The intersection of GTO and exploitative play should be of special interest to any poker player and Vanessa is the perfect instructor to tackle these topics. Known for her highly exploitative plays, Vanessa can dissect opponent weaknesses and translate them into opportunities for profit.

Vanessa��s dominance, dedication to her craft, and incisive thinking make her both a formidable opponent at the table and an enormous asset for LearnWPT Members as they explore the WPT GTO Trainer and improve their game.
