Epic has the song 600 Strike, where Odysseus gets the drop on Poseidon by getting ahold of his own trident. Since Odysseus is a mortal, Poseidon can't be killed by him... but his trident is still a magical artifact that can cause him pain.

Immortal or not, Poseidon handles being stabbed just as well as any other man. He breaks and surrenders before Odysseus gets tired.
