For all the success Paul Volpe has had over his poker career, he's never won a large live tournament at what he refers to as his home casino. That all changed Thursday night, though, as Volpe emerged victorious in the 2016 Borgata Spring Poker Open $2,700 Championship to take home the $356,255 first-place prize.
"Amazing," Volpe told reporters how he felt with the win. "I've always wanted to win here."
A resident of West Chester, PA, Volpe now boasts career live tournament earnings of over $4.5 million, according to the Hendon Mob database.
