Vanessa Selbst, MIT & Yale prodigy, held the lead as the final table of the World Poker Tour’s Ladies Championship got underway…ten days after it was decided. The talented rounder has cashed multiple times at the World Series of Poker, making two final tables last year alone. She was the odds-on favorite to take the title.
Selbst played a good game, making it all the way to heads-up play against political consultant Nancy Todd Tyner. Todd Tyner, a relative newcomer to poker, has worked on nearly 200 campaigns worldwide. Her candidates, many of whom were the underdogs in their competitions, have won 98% of these campaigns. That’s quite a successful track record.
Todd Tyner took her time playing against the more experienced Selbst. She handled the final table pressure very well and coolly dispatched the LA Poker Classic ladies champ, taking the title and more than $68k for her efforts.
Here are the final results:
1) Nancy Todd Tyner - $68,640
2) Vanessa Selbst - $40,815
3) Cindy Kerslake - $20,405
4) Janice Kim - $11,125
5) Donna Varlotto - $8,350
6) Van Tuyet Nguyen - $6,495
