Event 13 Champion Paul Volpe

The action folded to Paul Volpe, winner of the $10,000 No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw Championship, and he raised to 525 from the small blind. Johnny "World" Hennigan defended his big blind, and the flop fell {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. Volpe led out for 700, Hennigan raised to 1,600 and Volpe called.

The turn was the {4-Clubs}, Volpe check-called a bet of 3,100 and the river was the {a-Diamonds}. Volpe check-called one last bet - this one was worth 5,500 - and Hennigan turned over {k-Hearts}{j-Spades} for a pair of jacks.

Volpe revealed {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for a rivered pair of aces and was awarded the pot.
