Pilgrim Pushes; Volpe Vanishes
Dwyte Pilgrim opened to 5,300 from the cutoff and Paul Volpe called right next door from the button. The blinds released and the flop brought . Pilgrim checked to Volpe who seized this opportunity to put in a bet of 5,200.
Pilgrim opted to slide out a check raise, however, and suddenly Volpe was looking at 17,400 total. He eventually decided to call and the hit fourth street.
Pilgrim announced that he was all in and Volpe went into the tank.
"You haven't been that talkative this hand," Volpe said to the usually jovial Pilgrim.
Volpe ultimately decided to get rid of his cards, awarding the pot to the WSOP Circuit legend. Pilgrim is now sitting on about 105,000 while Volpe has fallen to 160,000.
