Pettersson Victorious in Battle of the Overpairs

Brandon Meyers opened for 8,000, Thomas Pettersson called from the hijack seat, Nikoali Yakovenko called from the small blind and Terrence Reinhart called from the big blind.

The action checked around to Meyers on the {6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop. He bet 18,000, Pettersson re-potted all-in for 49,500, the rest of the table folded and Meyers called.

Pettersson {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Meyers {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

The turn was the {7-Clubs}, the river was the {9-Clubs} and Pettersson raked in the pot, increasing his stack to 180,000. Meyers was left with 30,000.
