The Ecstasy and the Agony

Before the flop Darrell Dicken found himself all in with {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} against the {A-Clubs} {A-Spades} of Edward Zane. But Dicken turned the tables on the {K-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {3-Diamonds} flop and suddenly it was Zane who was looking to hit his two-outer.

Which, no doubt to Dicken's dismay, Zane did on the turn, as he caught the {A-Diamonds}. Dicken needed the case queen on the river to reverse the reversal of fortune, but instead it was the {K-Hearts} that fell and Dicken was eliminated. Zane is now up to 200,000.
