Rosa was moved to the Feature table earlier today and had Joe Hachem sitting two to her left. With her stack dwindling, Rosa raised with 44 and was called by the BB. The flop was 2-2-K and Rosa's last 8000 chips went in, she was quickly called by the BB who had J2. The turn was a blank and the case two on the river sealed Rosa's fate.
