Chrysler employee wins WSOP event

There is at least one lucky person who works for an American car company. Chrysler employee Ray Foley won a World Series of Poker event last week in dramatic fashion.

Numerous times during heads-up play, Cantu had Foley on the ropes. All-in and behind for his tournament life, Foley hit the cards he needed to keep his dream alive. Foley will never forget two hands during heads-up play: The first was a split pot in which he was holding A-7 versus Cantu's A-Q (8-8-5-6-5) and the second was when he hit a two-outer on the turn with 10-10 versus Cantu's K-7 (after Cantu hit a king on the flop). It just wasn't meant to be Cantu's night.

Foley's haul?

$657,969.

Not bad.
