In a huge preflop clash, Joe DeGeorge and Peter Cross committed their chips into the pot and found themselves in the classic race of pair versus overcards.

Cross was in the lead with his {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{Q-Diamonds}

but it didn't end that way as DeGeorge's {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Spades}

improved on the board of {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{K-Diamonds}

{6-Clubs}

{6-Hearts}

to collect the pot with close to 300,000. After the hand Cross was left with 40,000.
