As three-year-old, Vanessa Rousso moved with her family to France, but when she was 10 years old their parents divorced and she moved back to the USA, so she has dual citizenship. She showed her intelligence at an early age through making the Dean’s list – high achievers – and was very interested in game theory, the Rubik’s Cube and chess, while she was at the Duke University, but when she discovered the theory of poker she was completely fascinated. Then she wanted to enter poker tournaments, but she was quite young, so she started to play poker online and that was the start of raising her net worth. However, she graduated from Duke University after just two and a half years, the shortest time to graduate in the history of the university, with a degree in economics and political science. She later studied law at the University of Miami, but dropped out to start playing live poker, the beginning of her career.

In 2005 Vanessa went to Atlantic City to turn a $250 win into $17,500, allowing her to enter the World Series of Poker for the first time that year. From that point on, her career has only gone upwards; the same year, Vanessa won the No Limit Hold`Em Summer Series, held in Las Vegas, Nevada on June 13, making it her first win in a professional poker event.

The next year, Rousso pushed her career to the next level, as she won $285,450 with a first-place finish at the 173-entrant $5,000 no limit hold ’em event at the 4th Borgata Open, on the 13th September.

Vanessa became more and more frequent in the finishing rounds of tournaments, increasing both her popularity and net worth.
