That's Hard to Believe

Chris Zapf reraised all in for 98,000 after Robert Ford had reraised himself to 36,000. The original raiser folded to Zapf's all in, but Ford made the call with {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}. He was in a commanding lead over Zapf's {10-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}.

"Did anyone fold a ten?" Zapf asked hopefully.

The flop came no help for Zapf, {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} {7-Clubs}. Things were looking grim on the {5-Diamonds} turn, but the river brought Zapf a beautiful {10-Hearts} and gave him the winning hand. He let out a sigh of relief.

"That's the first bad beat I've given this entire tournament," claimed Zapf. Ford simply responded, "Good hand."
