What's the sickest display of poker you have ever saw?

For me it has to be Gus Hansen on Poker superstars where he needed to win the last round and 4 of the other 5 players at the table had to make a certain position in order to advance to the next round.

Gus shoved all in around 25 times straight off the bat (sometimes blind) that was sick.
And of course he won and progressed to the next round.

Or,,,, I think it was the 2005 US poker championship Final Table where John D,Agostino made the final table with the biggest chip lead in the history of the tournament and took bad beat after bad beat, then ending up all in with Hoyt Corkins with 10,10 against Hoyt's 7,9 off or something and the flop came down 77x, 7 turn x river, leaving him with 1 chip.
The very next hand he doesn't even look at his cards before shoving it in with KK. There was raise and a call. The 2 guys held QQ and JJ and both flopped a set.
GG John.

If anyone has seen poker more cruel or exciting as those 2 scenario's then be sure to let me know.

Unfortunately I would have to say Phil H. at this years Main Event Feature table and Scotty Nguyen's actions at the H.O.R.S.E final table
