Palavos Stunned By Two-Outer

After apparently straddling the previous hand and having his {A-?}{K-?} cracked, George Palavos appeared to be tilting when he pushed all his chips into the middle soon after. However, it turned out he held pocket aces and was in great shape for a double up against the pocket kings of James Houlis.

That is, until the board fell {4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and Houlis spiked his two-outer to end the day for Palavos.
