Brian Rast raised to 800 on the button, and Don Nguyen three-bet to 3,000. Rast called, then snap-called when Nguyen put him all in for his last 9,100 on the {2-Hearts}{j-Spades}{k-Spades} flop.

Nguyen: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Rast: {k-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Rast wished Nguyen luck in his next match after the {3-Spades} and {10-Spades} finished out the board.

Volpe Doubles

Level 3 : 200/400, 0 ante
Paul Volpe
Paul Volpe

Paul Volpe shoved on the button for 7,500 and David Peters snap-called from the big blind.

Volpe: {A-Spades}{7-Hearts}
Peters: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

The flop came down {Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} to give Peters a big lead with top set. Volpe caught some help on the {8-Spades} turn and sure enough, the {9-Diamonds} river fell to give Volpe a ten-high straight to double up.
