Paul Volpe

Nick Schwarmann raises from the hijack to 40,000, Paul Volpe (pictured) moves all in from the cutoff for 70,000, and Taylor Wilson reraises from the big blind to 170,000. Schwarmann reraises to 360,000, and Wilson uses one of his Time Chips to think for about 40 seconds before he moves all in.

Schwarmann thinks for about 30 seconds, saying something like, “Do you really have aces or kings?”

Schwarmann eventually folds, and Wilson shows Heart AClub A. Volpe turns over Diamond QHeart J, and he needs to improve to stay alive.

The board comes Diamond 10Diamond 7Diamond 3Club JHeart 2 — Volpe flops a diamond flush draw and turns a pair of jacks, but he improves no further. Taylor Wilson wins the pot with his pocket aces to eliminate Volpe in 52nd place.

Nick Schwarmann  –  1,910,000  (96 bb)
