Parker Hits One Outer on the River to Double Through "Choctaw"
We heard a commotion over at Table 13 and made our way over to discover that Jim Parker had just hit a one outer on the river to keep his 2012/2013 WSOP Circuit Choctaw Main Event hopes alive.
In the hand, a short-stacked Parker moved all in for 11,500 from the hijack with the 
and received a call from the player in the small blind. Justin "Choctaw" Kruger then looked down at the 
and moved all in over the top, and the small blind called off his last 14,000.
The 
flop gave both Parker and Kruger a set, but of course the latter's was out in front. The 
turn meant Parker needed the case ten on the river, and wouldn't you know it, the 
spiked.
Parker was all smiles, and even Kruger, who won the side pot to eliminate the small blind, couldn't help but laugh. "You can tell everybody you beat 'Choctaw' with a one outer," Kruger said with a smile.
