Hold'em:

We have definitive proof now that Nick Frangos can never say he didn't get lucky. Frangos raised preflop, then called a reraise by Mickey Appleman, who was in position. The flop came down all diamonds, {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

, with Frangos check-calling a bet from Appleman.

Both players checked the fourth diamond on the turn, {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

. When the river fell {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

, Frangos led out. Appleman called with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{K-Hearts}

, top pair top kicker. It was no good against Frangos' rivered set of eights, {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{8-Spades}

.

Frangos is up to 7,000 in chips. Appleman is down to 5,500.
