Dagoro, you're forgetting an aspect of Doflamingo's characterization: he's careless in the sense that he doesn't give a fuck about what he's doing and even when he loses his advantage, he simply brushes it off with a smile and/or a laugh and thinks of something else.

Sure, Law already took the smile off Doflamingo's face before, but that was for Law's hype. This chapter, on the other hand, already has Law hype by having Doflamingo by the balls. What I take issue with is with Doflamingo's reaction to said ball holding, it's completely out of character. The most Doflamingo should be doing is nervously laugh Law's blackmail away, not snap like a twig.
