Rousso Sliding

Rousso

Vanessa Rousso raised to 50,000 in the cutoff and Alan Sternberg was the lone caller on the button.

The flop came {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{6-Clubs}

and Rousso bet 85,000. Sternberg called and the {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

turn card followed. Vanessa bet 100,000 and Sternberg was not going anywhere, making the call. Both checked the {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

river card and Vanessa was not happy to see Sternberg turn up {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{10-Diamonds}

for a pair of tens.

She mucked and is down to about 485,000. Sternberg continues to build his stack with more than 2.5 million.
