[user46392]

Parker Reverses

[user46392]

Brock Parker raised it up from the button and both blinds called; they saw a {2-Clubs}

flop.

It checked around to Parker who bet and the small blind called, but the big blind raised. Not put off in the slightest, both players called.

The small blind checked the {Q-Spades}

turn and this time it was the big blind's turn to bet; Parker called and the small blind ducked out of the way.

The big blind bet out again on the {K-Diamonds}

river and Parker called, but Mr Big Blind turned over {J-Clubs}
