Selbst was propelled earlier in the tournament when she six-bet shoved all in with 8,4 suited, only to run in to Aces. But as is needed in tournaments, the luck was with her as she made a big double up when she hit a straight on the river.
Nick Binger had the unfortunate distinction of being the bubble boy, who exited in 57th missing out on any payout during Day 3. Others to bust in the money on Day 3 included Jerry Wong, Jeff Papola, Lee Markholt, Victor Ramdin, Bryan Leskowitz, Matt Matros, and Adam Junglen.
Along with Selbst, notables remaining include NAPT Los Angeles Champ Joe Tehan, Jacobo Fernandez, Adam Geyer, Dan Shak, Steve O’Dwyer, Olivier Busquet, Eric Froehlich, and Nenad Medic.
Tuesday, the remaining 24 will play down to the ESPN televised final table of eight.
