Zolotow's Still Fighting
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Paul Volpe raised the button to 70,000 and Steve Zolotow jammed the small blind for 190,000. Volpe stuck in the call to try and finish off Zolotow.
Steve Zolotow: A♣K♦
Paul Volpe: Q♥J♠
Volpe had just decimated Zolotow's stack with aces versus jacks in a recent hand, and now had the chance to claim his bounty.
The J♥K♥9♣ flop gave each player a pair, although Zolotow was ahead with top pair.
The 7♣ turn was safe for Zolotow, and the A♠ completed the board, improving him to two pair and keeping him in the tournament.
