He seems to be chipleader in every event he plays and he just won his third WSOP ring this year. 18 WSOP circuit cashes in one year is incredible.

Hes got a good shot at card player POY if he plays enough events. Heres the release from WSOP media reports.

Dwyte Pilgrim Wins His Third WSOP Circuit Gold Ring at Harrah’s Rincon





Valley Center, CA – Dwyte Pilgrim is a superstar in the making. The Brooklyn-born poker pro just won his third gold ring on the World Series of Poker Circuit, after coming out on top of a field of 169 players at Harrah’s Rincon, near San Diego. This victory followed two previous wins which both took place in 2009 – first at Caesars Atlantic City and second here at Harrah’s Rincon in last year’s Main Event championship.



Pilgrim initially burst upon the poker scene back in December 2008, at the WSOP Circuit event played at Harrah’s Atlantic City, where he cashed in five events. After he won his first gold ring three months later at Caesars, Pilgrim took the top prize at Rincon and was declared the “unofficial” WSOP Circuit Player of the Year in May 2009.



Indeed, Pilgrim’s performance in WSOP Circuit events over the past 15 months has been extraordinary. He has amassed three victories, ten final table appearances, and 18 cashes. To put this into perceptive, consider the all-time leader WSOP Circuit leader in history (Doug Carli) has 41 cashes, dating all the way back to 2005. Pilgrim has nearly half as many cashes in just over a year’s time. No one has won more gold rings than Pilgrim in this time span. And perhaps most scary of all for his future opponents, Pilgrim plans to play as many WSOP Circuit events as possible at upcoming tournaments in St. Louis, Las Vegas, and New Orleans, which will close out the 2009-2010 WSOP Circuit season.



Pilgrim candidly admits he wants nothing more than a WSOP gold bracelet and future success as a tournament poker player. While thousands of players around the world dream of similar success, Pilgrim is one of the rare few who has achieved most of his goals and seems genuinely destined for bigger things. Pilgrim freely admits he is eager to gain sponsorship and endorse various poker products and services. He also knows that he must first earn that right through performance at the poker table. But if his tournament record shows anything, it’s that Dwyte Pilgrim is in a class of his own when it comes to poker talent, personality, and enjoying the game he loves.



The $300 (+40) buy-in No-Limit Hold’em tournament was played over two consecutive days during March 25-26, 2010. Final Table play began on a Friday afternoon. Pilgrim was the only prior WSOP Circuit gold ring event winner among the final nine players – which meant eight players were seeking their first WSOP-related win. But Pilgim dominated all but the runner up in this tournament – a car dealer from Santa Rosa, CA named Jim Silveira who gave Pilgrim a late scare.

thanks?

do Rings count?

Dwyte Pilgrim = Lord of the rings
Alan Kessler = Lord of the wrongs

ALLEN not Alan

Doug Lee's one circuit ring is greater than Pilgrim's three imo.

Pilgrim can only dream he had the skill of The Toolbox.

I just looked at his Poker Player profile. His results are relatively sick, to say the least. In addition to his 3 WSOPC wins, he has 2 wins at WPT prelims(in Biloxi, both with 400 runners only a few days apart) A win at the "Mega stack challenge" main event at Foxwoods with 200+ runners, as well as a 3rd place in another WSOPC event. That's pretty good imo.

Never knew wsop did rings, are they real diamonds?

x amount of WSOP Circuit rings = 1 Gold Bracelet


x = maybe 3? 4?

Sick run for this guy, congrats to him.

Yawn.

Somewhere, out there in this often cold, dark, lonely world, Doug Lee just shed a tear.

A moment of silence please.

This picture is hilarious on so many levels.

They are trying really hard to dilute the brand name WSOP. Rings, $340 buyin. Tonnes of meaningless tournaments with no real relation to WSOP. Who cares at this stage?

.

Alan itt?

Does he play 10k's at all? His results are kind of ridiculous and I would be surprised if he couldn't get a backer. He's like a mini-Elky. Does he play online?

I thought Jesus was the sole leader with 3 WSOP Circuit Event Rings - up until now I guess...

This was true back when circuit events were televised and hence interesting. I guess there's a new one every week now, so things have changed.

dwyte plays pretty well, seems like a good guy who enjoys the game from the bit i've played with him. Congrats on ring #3.

WTF ARE RINGS

Sounds like Allin wants a ring from this guy, and it has nothing to do with poker. That leaves two choices.

Nothing can stop Allen Kessler 3 terrible posts every day
