Negreanu Makes Hero Call; Rousso Shows the Goods

Kid Poker - Vanessa Rousso's fourth victim
Kid Poker - Vanessa Rousso's fourth victim
Vanessa Rousso has just exterminated another world-class pro in Daniel Negreanu to earn a spot in the final four. Few could argue that Rousso's had the toughest road to the semis, having had to play the likes of Doyle Brunson, Phil Ivey, 2007 NBC Heads-up Champ Paul Wasicka and now Negreanu. Here's how the final hand went down:

Negreanu made it 12,000 to go from the button and Rousso called. The flop came down {2-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {6-Hearts} and Rousso checked to Negreanu, who fired a continuation bet worth 12,000. Rousso countered with a check-raise, making it an additional 13,000 for Negreanu to call and call he did.

The {3-Spades} was the next card off the deck, and Rousso chose to pass the first action to Negreanu, who bet 28,000. Rousso immediately moved all in, sending a visibly perplexed Negreanu into the tank.

"Blech!" said Negreanu, while executing a vomiting motion. "Yuck, I'm so gonna lose right now!"

After a solid four minutes in the tank, Negreanu emerged with a call and Rousso quickly tabled {2-Spades} {2-Hearts} for a full house.

"I need a six or a three" said Negreanu, as he revealed his own hand -- {Q-Diamonds} {6-Spades}.

He'd get neither as the {10-Diamonds} fell on the river completing the board and Rousso took down the pot and the match with deuces full.

After a quick post-match interview with Leeaan Tweeden, Daniel graciously posed for photos with a large group of fans, while Vanessa left the set to prepare for her upcoming semifinal match against fellow Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand 'ElkY' Grospellier.
