Plummetting Pilgrim

We found Dwyte Pilgrim reraising Kyle Keranen making it 20,500 to see the board. Keranen obliged and made the call. On a {3-Spades}{8-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} flop Pilgrim put out a 34,500 bet and was called by Keranen.

On the {3-Diamonds} turn both players checked. We had a repeat of action with both Keranen and Pilgrim checking the {3-Clubs} river. When the cards were to be flipped Pilgrim held his cards over the muck knowing he more likely than not had the worse of it. Keranen showed {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a full house threes over eights, which was more than enough as Pilgrim released his hand and let it fall into the muck.
