Vanessa Rousso Eliminated

Just prior to the break, Vanessa Rousso pushed her chips into the middle preflop from the small blind after some aggressive action against a raise from late position. Her opponent thought before making the call with A-Q and was racing against Rousso's pocket sixes.

The flop came {3-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts} and Rousso added a straight draw to her lead in the hand. However, the {Q-Clubs} changed things around, as her opponent landed a bigger pair. Needing help on the river to survive, Rousso watched as the {3-Clubs} landed, much to her dismay, to send her to an early exit from today's event.
