Run Good!

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} {K-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}, with Frangos check-calling a bet from Appleman.

Both players checked the fourth diamond on the turn, {10-Diamonds}. When the river fell {8-Clubs}, Frangos led out. Appleman called with {A-Spades} {K-Hearts}, top pair top kicker. It was no good against Frangos' rivered set of eights, {8-Hearts} {8-Spades}.

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