Brock Parker Wins a Pot, Then an Orbit
Benny Glaser opens the button to 80,000, and Brock Parker defends his big blind.
Parker draws one card, and Glaser draws three. Parker leads out for 40,000, and Glaser calls. Parker draws the same single card again, while Glaser improves to a two-draw and calls a big bet of 80,000. Parker still needs one more card, but Glaser is standing pat. Parker leads back out for the last 80,000, and Glaser calls.
Parker tables , winning the pot with Number Two.
That pot puts Parker in a dead heat for the lead, a position which he'll go on to secure over the next three hands. First, Parker raises the small blind, and Glaser folds his big. On the next hand, Parker opens the button and gets two folds. To close out a quick and successful orbit, Parker gets a walk in the big blind, and he's now trying to open up a little gap on the other two gentlemen.
Brock Parker - 1,350,000
Benny Glasser - 1,040,000
Noah Bronstein 520,000
