Maurice Hawkins and Dwyte Pilgrim Taking Control of Table 440

Two of the more talkative players in the game find themselves seated next to one another at Table 440. Maurice Hawkins is sitting in Seat 1 and Dwyte Pilgrim is to his left in Seat 2. Hawkins found himself with a near triple-up early on, then would add a few more chips to his stack shortly thereafter.
Hawkins opened the action to 17,000 then called an all-in reraise of a short stack. Hawkins had and his opponent held

. The
on the turn would give Hawkins's opponent more outs, but the river was the
to give Hawkins a full house.
The hand before that saw Scott O'Reilly open the action for 17,000 and Hawkins call. Pilgrim raised it to 73,000 and O'Reilly moved all in. Hawkins joked "am I even here. Do these two see me here?" before folding. Pilgrim quickly called tabling . O'Reilly held
. The board ran out
and Hawkins gave Pilgrim a congratulatory high-five as Pilgrim let out a deep breath and said "they musta forgot! they musta forgot!"
Pilgrim was down to just 3,000 late last night and now has moved over the half-million mark in chips.
