Skarparis Wins Battle of the Overpairs
Level 4
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of 2?2?4? and roughly 40,000 already in the middle, Georgios Skarparis bet 16,000 from the cutoff and George Panagides raised to 38,500 from the button. Skarparis moved all in for 121,000 and Panagides made the call with a covering stack.
Georgios Skarparis: K?K? 
George Panagides: J?J?
Skarparis was well ahead with pocket kings and remained so on the 8? turn and 4? river to score a massive double up at the expense of Panagides.
