Hold'em

Under the gun, Paul Parker opened with a raise to 84,000. Next door, Rami Boukai reraised the minimum, making it 144,000 to skate. The rest of the table ducked out, while Parker called off his last few thousand chips, putting himself in danger of extinction.

Showdown
Parker: {A-Clubs} {6-Hearts}
Boukai: {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}

The board ran out bone dry for the at-risk Parker, coming {8-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {7-Hearts}. Failing to get over the hump, Paul Parker has been knocked off in 6th place. Parker was the life of the party for three days, and the best dressed man in the field. His cheeky wit and gregarious spirit kept this final table light and cheerful despite the pressure of playing for a big prize. Now he has good reason to be happy as he'll collect just under $40,000 for his work over the course of this event.
