The Agony and the Ecstasy

The ecstasy: getting an opponent to commit himself all in with king-ten against your pocket queens.

The agony: a flop of {8-?} {K-?} {K-?}.

The ecstasy: turning a queen and ducking your opponent's bigger full house outs on the river.

That was the story of Dimitrios Pappis in a recent hand at Table 17. As a result of spiking his two-outer on the turn, Pappis sent a player to the rail and increased his chip count to about 42,000.
