Volpe's River Check-Raise Doesn't Work

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 300 ante

On the {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} board, Paul Volpe checked to Andrew Pantling, who checked behind to see the {3-Spades} fall on the river. After Volpe checked again, Pantling bet 33,000. Volpe took a few moments, then check-raised to 108,000. Pantling went into the tank.

It is interesting to note that last night, Volpe checked the river on a board with paired aces against Scott Palmer holding the top full house, planning to check-raise. Pantling was strong to the call this time, but Volpe didn't have a full house. He had the {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} instead, and Pantling's {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades} was good.
