Volpe Accumulating

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

On a {9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{9-Clubs} board, Daniel Idema had checked and then was facing a bet from Ben Volpe for 12,500 and a call in front of him. He decided to move all in for 65,000 and Volpe called. The third player folded and the hands were turned up.

Idema: {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Volpe: {j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

While the {10-Hearts} turn gave Idema some more hope, the {2-Clubs} river bricked off and he hit the rail with a min-cash. Volpe, on the other hand, now has 555,000.
