Event 18: 4th Place - Parker

 $1000 + $90 Six-Max No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

 Brock Parker (Silver Spring, MD) 

$30,865

Brock Parker's run from big stack to the rail happens in the span of three critical hands.

The first one happens on the last hand of the 8k/16k/2k ante level.

With the board showing 9 8 2 10 J, Seth Berger moves all in for 450k and Parker calls.

Berger tabled K Q for the rivered straight which cut Parker down to 950k.

At the start of the next level (10k/20k/3k ante), Parker turned two pairs against Tim Bryan's bottom set.

Bryan then finishes the job.

Bryan: 10♣ 10♠

Parker: A♠ 9♣

There's no help on the board and Parker finishes a disappointing 4th.

"Very frustrating," says Parker, "Oh well, main tomorrow."

Parker, who won the Borgata Fall Poker Open for $373,000, returns Sunday for Day 1A of the Winter Open Championship event.

Bryan's new found chips gives him the chip lead three-handed.
