Online Poker Player Denies Negreanu Big Bracelet Record
Former Magic card game champion Brock Parker has taken the 2009 WSOP bracelet for Event #14, $2,500 6-handed Limit Holdem, snagging it from favorite Daniel “Kid Poker” Negreanu who was hoping to make this his third WSOP Limit Holdem bracelet, tying the record Phil Hellmuth holds for the most WSOP bracelets held in Limit Holdem. But it wasn’t to be for Negreanu, this being the third time in his World Series of Poker Career that he was runner-up in a WSOP Limit Holdem event.
Parker, meanwhile, a 27-year-old from Silver Springs, Maryland, is now $223,697 richer, making his total live poker career winnings $417,583. Parker is better known in poker circles for his online game, going by the menacing username “t_soprano”. This marks his second appearance in a WSOP final table and his fifth time cashing-in in a WSOP event. No doubt we’ll be seeing a lot of more of Brock Parker’s Magic ahead, and in the meantime, Kid Poker’s quest for that all-elusive third Limit Holdem bracelet continues.
Maybe Kid Poker should take up casino games to offset some of his losses. He could find Casino Downloads or Mac Poker Site Downloads to help him build up his bankroll again. Hahaha!
