Volpe's River Check-Raise Doesn't Work
Level 15
: 1,500/3,000, 300 ante
On the 
board, Paul Volpe checked to Andrew Pantling, who checked behind to see the 
fall on the river. After Volpe checked again, Pantling bet 33,000. Volpe took a few moments, then check-raised to 108,000. Pantling went into the tank.
It is interesting to note that last night, Volpe checked the river on a board with paired aces against Scott Palmer holding the top full house, planning to check-raise. Pantling was strong to the call this time, but Volpe didn't have a full house. He had the 
instead, and Pantling's 
was good.
