Austin Doubles Through Volpe on Last Hand of Night
Level 8
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Miles Austin opened for a raise from under the gun, the action folded to Paul Volpe who three-bet in the big blind, and Austin moved all in for 40,000 even. Volpe snap-called.
Austin: 
Volpe: 
The two-time Pro Bowler was in rough shape, but the 
flop gave him aces up. It also gave Volpe a flush draw, however, and any spade on the turn or river would eliminate Austin.
Fortunately for him both the 
and the 
were bricks, and Austin doubled through. Volpe fell to 215,000 chips, and may still be the chip leader.
