Volpe Lands a Johnnie to Stay Alive

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Three players moved all in before the flop with Mike Volpe sitting second in chips with his 39,000 stack. Players tabled their hands and Volpe found himself in an unfortunate spot, needing to hit to stay alive.

Opponent: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Mike Volpe: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{j-Hearts} and Volpe managed to spike a jack on the river to stay alive, taking down two overpairs to scoop the pot.
