Gee Grabs Some from Volpe

The first hand at the secondary feature table saw Paul Volpe opening for 240,000 from early position and getting a single caller in Steven Gee in the big blind.

The flop came {7-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{2-Spades}. Gee checked, and Volpe continued for 280,000. Gee thought a moment, then called. The turn was the {6-Clubs}. Gee checked again, and after pausing about 20 seconds Volpe checked as well.

The river brought the {10-Hearts}. This time Gee led out for 675,000. Volpe looked over at Gee, riffling his chips with his left hand with his right resting on his left shoulder. He then looked back down at his chips, taking two full minutes before letting his hand go.
