Jennifer Tilly raised to 2,400, and three players called including Kevin Song on the button. Vanessa Selbst put in a re-raise from the big blind, making it 11,200 to go, and Tilly quickly four-bet to 35,000. The action folded back to Selbst, who smiled.

She said something that sounded like "I three-bet without a plan" as she cut out the remainder of her stack.

"All in," she announced, committing a total of 62,900. "That was the original plan."

Feeling priced in, Tilly called, saying she was "suited."

Tilly: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}
Selbst: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}

"Oh," Selbst blurted, surprised to see two overs. "I thought you had like nine-seven."

The {8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} flop changed nothing, and the {q-Spades} on the turn was a brick as well. An inconsequential {a-Spades} completed the board, and Selbst doubled through.

The two-time WSOP bracelet winner is now up to 106,000 chips, while Tilly dropped down to 80,000.
