Parx does not really have a chip runner. They have a chip cart.
Anyone who has played out west, specifically the Bay area, understands what I mean.
A room the size of Parx would have about 6 of these swarming the tables at all times. Usually you are no more than 30 seconds away from chips at any time. The reason why it matters is that it makes it reasonable to hold action until the pot is correct.
As to the exact incident:
Players need to protect their equity when they are unsure.
Parx is at least partially complicit due to the dealer announcing the 2k behind. If Parx can't enforce it, the dealers need to not announce it. As a matter of fact, the dealers should clarify the situation when it occurs.
If it all went down as told, the angle shooter should be banned (again.)
