Rousso Takes Another Pot

Vanessa Rousso called a preflop raise of 425 from the big blind, as did another player who had limped from under-the-gun.

After the original raiser bet 900 on a flop of {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{5-Spades}, Rousso put in a min check-raise to 1,800. The player under-the-gun folded, and the middle position player called.

Rousso led for 2,500 at the {Q-Spades} on the turn, forcing a fold. The pot brought her chip stack to about 17,000.
