Where Did Volpe's Chips Go?

In the previous level, Paul Volpe sat at the table but the problem was that his chips were nowhere to be found.

"I was afraid I put them in my pocket, but I can't find them anywhere," Volpe said upon discovering his chips were gone.

Volpe's neighbor just won a big pot the hand before and the general consensus at the table was that he accidentally took Volpe's chips as well when he raked in the pot.

The floor was called and Volpe was told that it would take a long time to look up the security cam footage, and that an determining an exact amount was most likely not even possible.

Volpe only knew he had "a little under 20,000." Volpe and his neighbor eventually agreed on the number 18,500 and no cameras were checked.

The next hand was played with 18,500 in front of Volpe and he folded.
