The Rich Looking to Get Richer
It's been a great 2013 for Jeff Rossiter. He's already won more than $3.3 million in tournament winnings (only Anthony Gregg and Niklas Heinecker have won more with $5.8 million and $4.5 million respectively), and he'll be adding to that in this event.
In a recent hand, Rossiter opened from the cutoff only to have Steven Warburton three-bet to 58,000 from the small blind. Not to be outdone, Rossiter four-bet to 136,000 and Warburton tanked for about two minutes before making the call.
Both players proceeded to check the flop and turn. When the completed the board on the river, Rossiter fired out 93,000 and Warburton thought long and hard before making the call. Rossiter tabled the for top pair and it was good as Warburton sent his hand to the muck.
