Selbst Finds a Favorable River

Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
A completed board of 7?4?2?6?4? was spread across the table with Vanessa Selbst and Kazuhiko Yotsushika heads-up. Selbst checked to Yotsushika who tossed in a bet of 25,000 into a pot of around 35,000. Selbst instantly called and Yotsushika tabled 7?6? for two pair. Selbst showed J?J? for a better two pair as the river paired the board.
Yotsushika thought he won the pot at first until he realized that there was a pair on the board.
"I was just hoping you were bluffing but I guess you were value-betting," Selbst noted about Yotsushika's misread.
