Rousso's Suited Ace is Gold

Vanessa Rousso opened pre-flop for 1,500 and was raised by the button player to 3,750. Before calling the re-raise, Rousso asked her opponent how many chips he had. The answer was roughly 55,000.

Rousso then called out of position for a flop of {7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. She check-called a bet of 4,800. Both she and her opponent checked the {k-Spades} turn. The river was the {5-Hearts}. Rousso, with first action, made it 10,000 to go. Her opponent took two full minutes before making the call but couldn't beat Rousso's straight, {a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. Rousso is now up to about 130,000.
