Championship Day 1A: Volpe Stacking

$3,500 WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown Championship
Level 2: 75/150

“How much you got?”

Those were the words out of Paul Volpe’s mouth as he eyed his opponent’s stack with the board showing KhTc6cKd. His opponent muttered an amount and Volpe made a bet of 3,500. There was one other player in the pot, between the two, and he made the call. Volpe’s other opponent joined in the fun.

The river was the 8h and Volpe’s two opponents checked to him. He casually tossed out a T5,000 chip leading to a quick fold from the player to his left. The other player thought it over for a minute and decided to look up the well-known pro.

Volpe turned over Kc7c for trip kings and his opponent mucked his hand. This is Volpe’s second bullet after he was eliminated on his first bullet when his full house, queens full of aces, ran into a bigger full house, aces full of queens. This bullet is off to a much better start for him.

The players are now on a break. We’ll have some chip counts soon.
