Jose Gonzalez limped UTG+1 for 12,000, Paul Volpe raised from the hijack to 30,000, and Gonzalez limp-raised to 70,000. Volpe called.

The flop came Qd10c3s, and Gonzalez moved all in. Volpe called with 10h10d for a set of tens, and Gonzalez turned over A-A for an overpair. Gonzalez needed to improve to stay alive.

The turn card paired the board with the 3h, the river card was the 2c, and Volpe won the pot with a full house, tens full of threes, to eliminate Gonzalez in 60th place.

Paul Volpe  –  810,000  (68 bb)
Jose Gonzalez  –  Eliminated in 60th Place  ($17,500)
