The Spring of Our Discontent

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

A hand worthy of reportorial coverage just went down at Chris Tryba's table, and while the World Series of Poker bracelet winner was more than happy to shoot the breeze, the winner of the pot remained reticent and reluctant.

The flop read {k-Spades}{10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} when two players engaged in a raising war that eventually saw sizable stacks shoved forward. The player with the shorter stack rolled over {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}, while his opponent revealed his {K-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} with a flourish.

Finding himself with a hammerlock on the hand, the young man with a set of kings watched as the turn ({7-Diamonds}) gave him the win, and he began stacking his bounty even before the {k-Hearts} fell on the river to give him quads.

Moments after making the best hand he is likely to find all day - stacking an opponent and scoring a huge pot in the process - the player declined to provide his name, adding a bit of mystery to a monster pot.
