Volpe is Drooling

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Paul Volpe led out for what looked like 2,000 on a flop of {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{a-Spades}. Scott Seiver folded, Martin Finger raised to 4,800, and Volpe made the call.

The turn was the {2-Hearts}, Volpe opted to check, and Finger knuckled behind. The {10-Diamonds} completed the board, Volpe checked again, and Finger revealed {10-}{9-}.

Volpe ripped over {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades} for trip aces, and raked in the pot.

"I was drooling there," Volpe said, alluding to Finger's flop raise. "It sucks you had a nine."
