Runner Runner Cripples Dwyte Pilgrim

Dwyte Pilgrim






































Dwyte Pilgrim and his opponent get all-in before the flop.  Pilgrim holds [Tc][Ts] while his opponent turns over [7d][7h].

The flop comes out [9h][8d][2h] and Pilgrim maintains his lead.  The turn is the [5s], giving his opponent outs to a straight.

The [6h] then falls on the river, completing his opponent's straight and leaving Pilgrim with only 17,000 in chips.

Ronnie Pease






































Defending Foxwoods Poker Classic Main Event Champion Ronnie Pease has been eliminated from the 2012 FPC Main Event.  Last year, Pease was part of a three-way chop at the end of the event, taking home more than $108,000.

Pease was knocked out by his friend, Soheb Porbandarwala, after he four-bet all-in before the flop and was called by Porbandarwala.

The A-5 of Pease was not able to catch up to the pocket queens of Porbandarwala, eliminating him from the Main Event.
