Triple Up for Volpe

Level 16 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Paul Volpe
Paul Volpe

Paul Volpe raised to 35,000 first to act and was called by Jacob Kalb from two seats over. Phil Galfond in the big blind raised the pot to 145,000, Volpe called all in for 64,000 and Kalb called.

On the {4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop, Galfond bet the pot and that forced out Kalb.

Paul Volpe: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Phil Galfond: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}{10-Spades}{3-Hearts}

The {5-Diamonds} turn and {A-Hearts} river changed nothing and Volpe tripled with a set of aces.
