Parker Hungry For Chips

Brock Parker raised to open the pot, and Kyle Ray defended his big blind.

Heads up, they took a flop of {J-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {7-Clubs}, and Ray check-raised Parker's continuation bet.

The turn came the {5-Diamonds}, Ray bet, and Parker raised it right back. Ray smooth-called the extra bet, and the {6-Spades} saw him check-call one final bet from Parker.

Parker tabled {A-Spades} {J-Hearts}, and Ray sat still for fifteen or twenty seconds, studying the cards in front of him. Finally, he shook his head and threw his cards into the muck. That moves Parker up over the 700,000-chip mark, knocking Ray down to about that same level.

Any pot played to the river nowadays is going to represent a significant chunk of a player's stack.
