Pilgrim vs. Laak

Action folded to Phil Laak in the cutoff and he opened for a standard raised. When it was Dwyte Pilgrim's turn to act, he reraised to 2,300, which Laak called. It was heads up to the {5-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop, inspiring Pilgrim to lead out for 3,100. Laak made the call as the dealer burned and turned the {J-Diamonds}.

Both players checked and watched as the {2-Diamonds} hit the river. Pilgrim fired out 6,500 and Laak decided to look him up. Pilgrim proudly showed {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} and the Unabomber could only muck.
