Vanessa Selbst took 200,000 off Jamie Pickering before the final hand took place.

Surprisingly we had a limped pot that brought a flop {7-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {10-Hearts}.

Pickering checked to Selbst who bet 90,000. Pickering then looked at his cards and moved all in.

Selbst made the call and flipped over {9-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {J-Spades} {J-Clubs}.
Pickering flipped over {10-Spades} {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} {9-Hearts}.

The turn came {5-Spades} and river {A-Hearts}.

It's over as Vanessa Selbst's hand holds up and she wins Event 19, the $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha. Jamie Pickering takes home $145,459 for second, and Vanessa Selbst grabs $227,965 and her first WSOP bracelet.

Congratulations also go to Jamie Pickering for his second-place finish and helping this be one of the most entertaining final tables of this year's WSOP.
