Pilgrim Talks His Way into a Call

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

We caught up with the action on a board reading {7-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{J-Hearts} and Dwyte Pilgrim led out for 4,300 from early position. His only opponent in the big blind fell into the tank, which led to some table chat from the ever-talkative Pilgrim.

"Gotta full-house?" Pilgrim asked.

"Is that what it takes?" his opponent answered.

"...No."

The two continued to chat about possible holdings until Andrew Frankenberger interrupted, "I enjoy this as much as you guys but lets play some poker," and he called the clock.

Pilgrim's opponent flung in a call and Pilgrim tabled {K-}{K-}. His opponent mucked.

Pilgrim is up to 22,000.
