Volpe Goes for It All

Level 15 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

On a board reading {k-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{8-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, the action was on Paul Volpe who was facing a bet of 525,000 from Jake Schindler. There was already over 800,000 in the middle and Volpe shoved all in, putting Schindler at risk for his tournament life should he call.

Schindler used up his remaining four time extensions before the clock finally ran out and he was forced to send his cards to the muck. Volpe raked in the pot to climb over the 4,000,000 chip mark.
