"Get Outta Here!"

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

We caught up to find the board reading {8-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and all of Dwyte Pilgrim's chips in the middle. Pilgrim's opponent flipped up {5-}{5-} for a cancelled out pocket pair.

"Get outta here!" exclaimed Pilgrim as he flipped up {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, his ace high being the best hand. Pilgrim scored a double up but is still short with about 1,200.
