Vanessa Selbst Net Worth
Professional poker player Vanessa Selbst is the only female player that ever reached the number one ranking on the prestigious Global Poker Index. And with such a success come a lot of money. Her total poker tournament winnings are over $10 million. As of 2015, Selbst’s net worth is estimated to be slightly over $6 million.
Vanessa was born July 9, 1984 in Brooklyn, New York. She studied at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Yale University. She earned a college degree in Political Science. In 2008, Selbst won almost $250 thousand in $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha tournament. And that was just a beginning of her spectacular career in poker.
In 2014, Selbst competed at $25,000 Mixed-Max No-Limit Hold’em tournament and won almost $900,000. Her total prize money is over $10 million as of 2015. And we have a strong feeling that this is not still her peak.
Selbst is openly lesbian. In 2013, she married her long-term girlfriend Miranda Foster. The wedding ceremony was beautiful. Vanessa wore light-grey suit and Miranda wore white wedding dress. We wish this new couple a lot of love and hapiness.
