Brock Parker is rolling. A 27-year-old professional from Maryland, Parker rose above a sizable field to win the $2,500 Six-Handed No-Limit hold’em tournament, Event 19, of the 2009 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas. The win gives Parker his second bracelet of 2009.

It was the 13th time he’s cashed at the WSOP.

“I can’t describe this,” Parker said. “This is just unreal. It actually does not feel real to me.”

Several players that have won World Series events cashed in Event 19, including Men Nguyen (16th), Blair Hinkle (26th), Erick Lindgren (29th), Howard Lederer (30th), Bill Edler (49th) and Layne Flack (68th).

Overall, 108 places paid.
