Pilgrim Loses One, But All Smiles
The river was the and Pilgrim fired 1,500. His opponent didn't look to happy about Pilgrim firing out the bet, but made the call anyway. Pilgrim tabled and then his opponent tabled for the winning hand.
Pilgrim dropped to 31,000 chips, but still has a big smile on his face. Maybe that's because he's kicked off 2010 on a heater at the tables. In January, Pilgrim won a $500 event and a $300 event at the Souther Poker Championship good for $52,040 and $28,733, respectively. He also took second for nearly $45,000 in a $1,000 event at the same series.
So far in February, Pilgrim has scored a sixth-place finish at the WSOP Circuit event in Tunica for just under $27,000 and then he won the Mega Stack Challenge XV at Foxwoods for over $50,000. After his win on the East Coast, Pilgrim made his way to Vegas where he has already final tabled one of the preliminary events here at the Venetian.
