"$175 NLH $100,000 GTD" (Flight 1C): Steve Rosen Gets The Perfect Flop, More Than Doubles Up

$175 No Limit Hold'em
$100,000 Guaranteed
Level 7 (Blinds 250/500/75)
Total Flight 1C Entries: 92



Steve Rosen (Delray Beach, FL) primarily plays in higher buy-in events, but decided that he didn't want to pass up on the potential value this event will carry.

There were three players standing at Table 6, which was a good indication that something big was unfolding.  It just so happened that three players were all-in pre-flop, for a pot worth close to 40,000, with the hands already face up on the table.  Steve Rosen (Delray Beach, FL) held a slim lead, but ended up basically securing the win on the flop:

Rosen: 8♣ 8
Player X: A K
Player Y: 6♣ 6♠

Runout: 8 4 4♠ J♣ 3

Steve flopped a full house, which he ended up needing every bit of, as the one opponent who had him at risk, ended up making a flush on the river.  Rosen, who has over $59,000 in live tournament earnings, is now well above the current chip average (26,000).

Steve Rosen - 41,000 (82bb)
