Oppenheim Moves the Big Chips

Level 5 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Preflop David Oppenheim slid out all his large denomination chips for a raise, essentially putting Vanessa Rousso all in. Rousso wondered aloud if she could show her cards. She tanked for a few moments but then made the call holding {A-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} against Oppenheim's pocket queens. The flop hit Oppenheim when it fell {J-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} but the turn gave Rousso Broadway when it fell {K-Spades}. The river blanked with {8-Hearts} for Oppenheim and he sent 17,600 to Rousso. Both players still hold both rebuy chips.
