A Crippling Overpair

Michael Walls opened the pot with a raise to 50,000 from early position. Next to act was Phillip Reed. He stood from his chair and said, "Well boys, you might get your wish here." With that, he slid his entire chipstack into the middle -- all 128,000 of it in one neat stack. The betting passed around to the original raiser, and Walls made the call, having his opponent covered.

Showdown:
Walls: {9-Clubs} {9-Diamonds}
Reed: {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}

The board was friendly for the overpair, coming out {6-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {2-Clubs} {10-Spades} {2-Diamonds}. With his bigger full house, Phillip Reed doubles up to exactly 300,000. In the process, he has crippled Michael Walls all the way back to his last 60,000.
