Volpe and Sternberg Put Their Chips into the Middle
Level 11
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Alan Sternberg moved all in for starting stack and Paul Volpe called for his 88,000 stack.
Paul Volpe: 
Alan Sternberg: 
Volpe was dominated by the ace-nine of Sternberg and the 
flop did not increase his chances of winning the hand. A turn changed all of that, shifting the lead to Volpe who now had Sternberg drawing to a nine to win the pot.
A 
river cemented the pot for Volpe as he found a complete double through Sternberg.
