Ten to the Money

Shamus

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

With about 15 minutes left to go in Level 15 they are down to 130 players, which means 10 more eliminations must come before the tournament reaches the money.

Vanessa Rousso is among the shorter stacks remaining particularly mindful of the approach of the cash bubble.

Rousso has improved her status so far today, having nearly doubled her starting stack. But she remains cautious, as evidenced just now after she opened from early position with a raise to 7,000, then watched her neighbor Markus Ristola reraise to 16,000 to scatter the others. Rousso took a couple of minutes before folding, thereby preserving her stack of about 20 big blinds.
