Rousso Doubles Up

Vanessa Rousso
Vanessa Rousso
On a board showing {7-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Spades}, Team PokerStars Pro Vanessa Rousso moved all in over the top of an opponent's 2,200 flop bet for a total of 13,650. Her opponent called without hesitation and tabled {4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for a straight; Vanessa too had a straight, except hers was of the nut variety -- {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}.

After the hand, Rousso stacked up just under 30,000 in chips. Her opponent was left crippled with 1,650, and he lost them a couple of hands later when his kings were cracked by another player's J-10. Ahhh.... poker.
