The Shark Devours Rousso

Vanessa Rousso limped in and Humberto Brenes raised to 6,000, sending his short-stacked opponent into the tank.

"Do you have a big ace? I feel like gambling," said Rousso as she moved all in for her remaining 8,000. Brenes called the additional 2,000 and turned up {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}, dominating Rousso's {A-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. The board ran out {J-Spades}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and the Costa Rican Shark took it down, eliminating Rousso.
