Paul Volpe Eliminated by Thomas Miller in 29th Place ($216,211)

 
Paul Volpe 

Paul Volpe raises to 450,000 from under the gun, then Thomas Miller three-bets to 1,150,000 from middle position. The action folds back around to Volpe, who moves all in for 5,220,000. Miller snap-calls. 

Volpe:   
Miller:   

The board runs out       and Volpe is unable to improve and he hits the rail in 29th place. Volpe was the last player left in the field who could've caught Jason Mercier in the WSOP Player of the Year race, so with his elimination Mercier has now locked up the honor of 2016 WSOP Player of the Year.

Thomas Miller - 17,540,000 (88 bb)
Paul Volpe - Eliminated in 29th place for $216,211
