"All In on Matt"

Dwyte Pilgrim and Andy Philachack on Day 1
Dwyte Pilgrim and Andy Philachack on Day 1

Paul Volpe opened to 3,300 from under the gun, Matt Waxman called in middle position, and Dwight Pilgrim defended his big blind. The dealer fanned {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, Pilgrim checked, and Volpe continued for 5,200. Waxman tank-called, and Pilgrim moved all in.

Volpe quickly folded, and Waxman went into the tank. While Waxman was tanking, Carlos Monti, a photographer, went to grab Pilgrim's picture. Pilgrim, realizing that his photo was being taken, went into his signature, Usain Bolt-like pose.

"I'm all in on Matt!" Pilgrim exclaimed. "When I see that picture, Imma remember that I was all in on Matt!"

Waxman could only laugh.

"How could I possibly take this off the table," he said. "This is a lose-lose situation."

Waxman eventually folded, and Pilgrim raked in the pot.
