Volpe Lays it Down
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Paul Volpe raised to 60,000 on the button and Joao Simao potted to 190,000 in the big blind, leaving himself with 220,000 behind. Volpe called to see A?9?7? roll off the deck.
Simao wasted no time getting the rest of his stack in and Volpe went in the tank. The two players had an animated chat while Volpe was considering it.
"Will you show if I fold?" Volpe inquired.
"Is this for information?" Simao roared.
The pair kept quipping back and forth before Volpe ultimately laid it down. Simao was a good sport and flashed A?A?7?Xx, prompting a cheer from Volpe.
