ElkY Wins With King High

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier and another player were facing off with the board reading {10-Spades}{8-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. There was already quite a bit of money in the pot, and the other player checked the action over to ElkY who checked as well. The other player verbally said he had a busted draw, but ElkY said nothing and waited for the hand to be tabled. The other player showed his {6-Spades}{5-Spades} and ElkY flipped over the {k-Spades}{q-Spades}. Obviously both players were looking for another spade to hit the board but, in retrospect, ElkY's opponent is probably very happy it didn't come.
