Paul Volpe Eliminated by Brian Murphy

Apr 25, 2015

With the board showing [KsQhJs-5c] on the turn and about 20,000 already in the pot, Brian Murphy moves all in from middle position, and Paul Volpe goes into the tank.

Volpe says something along the lines of “I’m not sure I can fold this,” and thinks for a while longer before he calls with KclubJclub for two pair, kings and jacks. But Murphy turns over Aclub10heart for the flopped ace-high straight. Volpe needs to improve to stay alive.

The river card is the 2diamond, and Murphy wins the pot with his ace-high straight to eliminate Volpe from the tournament.

Brian Murphy  –  228,000  (380 bb)
Paul Volpe  –  Eliminated
