"Lady Maverick" Doubles Through Tran

Tran reacts to an unlucky river card
Tran reacts to an unlucky river card
Vanessa Rousso called a 4,500 preflop raise made by Theo Tran to see a flop of {Q-Spades}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}. Tran passed the first action to Rousso, who opened with an 8,000 bet. Tran then moved all in, putting Rousso to a decision for all of her chips. Vanessa called rather quickly and tabled {9-Spades}{7-Spades} for a flush draw; Tran produced {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} for top pair, top kicker.

Tran maintained the lead through the turn, {5-Clubs}, but the {4-Spades} on the river gave the hand and the pot to Rousso, who doubled through to approximately 85,000 in chips. Tran was left with just 25,000 and an incredibly damaged spirit - visibly and audibly angered by the result of the hand.
