Ship It to Vivek

Vivek Rajkumar and Dwyte Pilgrim just tangled in a hand that left Pilgrim nearly down to the felt.

On a flop of {J-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}, Pilgrim checked, Rajkumar bet 4,500 and Pilgrim called. The turn came the {2-Clubs} and this time Pilgrim led out for 4,500. Rajkumar came over the top for 17,000 and Pilgrim made the call. The river was the {2-Spades} and Pilgrim checked, opening the door for Rajkumar to bet 45,000. After a lengthy stint in the tank, Pilgrim called.

Rajkumar showed {A-Clubs} {J-Hearts} for two pair with an ace kicker. Pilgrim flashed the {J-Spades} as he tossed his cards into the muck, his stack down to only 8,000.

After the hand, Rajkumar was riding high with 255,000.
