Rosen Still Climbing
Level 7
: 300/600, 100 ante
After being down to about 4,000 earlier, Jesse Rosen is plenty healthy and pushing towards 50,000.
In one recent pot, a player opened to 1,500 on the button and Rosen made it 3,800 in the small blind. The player on the button came back with 8,500, and Rosen thought about a minute before shoving all in. That induced a quick fold.
