Beaten By a Girl

Vanessa Rousso has kicked things into a noticeably higher gear in the last level or so, and the results are showing up in her chip count. She has been among the more active players in the room, and is using her selective aggression to win a lot of beneficial pots.

In her most recent venture, she opened from the cutoff with a raise to 7,500. Only the big blind came along, and the flop showed up {K-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} {9-Spades}. Both players checked.

The turn was the {10-Clubs}. The big blind checked, and Rousso confidently put out a bet of 7,500, a little less than half the pot. Her opponent looked pained, re-checked his cards, and then slid them into the muck.

Riding this recent surge of activity, Rousso has vaulted over the century milestone, and she is sitting pretty with 110,000 chips.
