Volpe on the Rise

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Paul Volpe

A player opened in middle position with a raise to 3,500 and Paul Volpe called on the button.

The flop was {Q-Spades}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts} and the middle position player led with a bet of 5,000. Volpe just called.

On the {9-Hearts} turn, the player led out again, betting 5,000 again. Volpe thought about it briefly then called again.

The river was the {8-Hearts} and the player bet 5,000 one more time. Volpe thought for a second then raised, making it 17,400 to go. The player thought himself for a bit then called. Volpe showed down his {J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} and it was good for him to take down the pot as his opponent just had {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}.

With that pot, Volpe moved to just under 270,000 chips.
