Benjamin Volpe Eliminated in 12th Place ($28,931)

Benjamin Volpe - 12th place

Joseph Kuether raised from under the gun and made it 40 to anyone who wanted to see a flop. Action folded around to Benjamin Volpe on the button who moved all in for 369,000. Kuether quickly made the call. Kuether only held about 10,000 more chips than Volpe so the loser of this hand would basically be out.

Volpe: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Kuether: {A-}{A-}

The board came {4-}{A-}{4-}{k-}{5-} and with that Volpe was sent home.
