Joe Hanrahan, Day 2 Level 24

Joe Hanrahan continues his torrid stretch of winning here at Parx. He has yet to bust an event since chopping up the Big Stax 2500 in a 3-way deal a few months ago. He returned for the first event of this series and continues to be a dominant force.

Hanrahan just added to his stack after an open from the hijack and getting a 3-bet from Bill Parker on the button to 200k. He made the call and they went to the flop heads up.

Flop: 3♠5♥J♠ Pot: 485k

Hanrahan checked. Parker bet 200k and was called.

Turn: 6♠ Pot: 885k

Check/check.

River: Q♠

The river brings a four flush and Hanrahan takes the opportunity to fire into Parker. A bet of 365k is enough to get the fold and he rakes in the 885k pot and improves his stack to 2.5M.
