Volpe Doubles Through Polge
Level 6
: 300/600, 100 ante
The flop read 
and there was around 21,000 in the middle already. Paul Volpe had checked his small blind and Julien Polge bet 5,500 on the button. Volpe considered all his options for a while and decided to raise to 20,000 leaving himself behind with 1,900. Polge looked at the bet and raised to put Volpe all-in and Volpe snap-called.
Paul Volpe: 
Julien Polge: 
Volpe had flopped top pair and also had a flush draw to stay alive against Polge's middle pair.
The rest of the board was completed with the 
on the turn and the 
on the river to not impose any danger to Volpe's double-up.
