Costas High for Sid Harris

When it folded round to Sid Harris on the small blind, he moved all-in, for a raise of around 20,000. Big blind Costas Artemi looked at him (Harris, in turn, looked into the middle distance with a serene smile most unusual - and slightly disconcerting, actually - for the poker table). After a long think complete with headshaking, furrowed brow and support of neck, he finally shouted, "Call!" He was happy to see his {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} was dominating the {A-Spades} {9-Diamonds} of Harris. No surprises from a ten-high board, and we lose another one - they're dropping like flies in arsenic-laced honey.
