Volpe Beats Rotholz in Showdown
Level 12
Stud Hi-Lo
Paul Volpe: XxXx / A♣J♥9♦A♦ / Xx
Scott Seiver: XxXx / 8♥7♥7♣3♠ folded on sixth street
Hal Rotholz: XxXx / 6♦6♠5♣4♠ / Xx
Hal Rotholz had an open pair on fourth street while Scott Seiver bet and Rotholz called, as did Paul Volpe. On fifth street, Seiver made a superior open pair and bet, earning two calls. Volpe then paired his ace on sixth street and bet, Seiver mucked with plenty of frustration while Rotholz stuck around for one more street.
They checked seventh and Volpe first showed his K♦J♦ followed by the 2♥.
"That's exactly what I put you on," Phil Hellmuth chimed in.
