Rousso Doubles; Then Busts

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Vanessa Rousso
Vanessa Rousso

In the first hand, a short-stacked Vanessa Rousso went all-in for her last 6,500 from the small and was called by David Ulliott in the big.

Rousso: {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}
Ulliott: {A-Spades}{7-Spades}

The board came {a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}, giving Rousso a runner-runner full-house to stay alive.

However, a few hands later, Justin Young opened from early position and Rousso shipped her stack from late position. The blinds folded and Young called.

Young: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Rousso: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

This time the board wasn't so nice for Rousso, as it came {7-Spades}{J-Clubs}{k-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, eliminating Rousso and chipping Young (who has been on a tear since beginning day 2) up to 93,000.
