Jason DeWitt Chipping Up...Brett Richey Eliminated

Jason DeWitt has just eliminated players on consecutive hands.

First, he held {Q-Hearts} {6-Hearts} against Ralph Massey's {A-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} and short stack. The board ran out {K-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} {2-Spades} as Massey proclaimed "Ship it," while missing that DeWitt had made a straight.

On the next hand, Domenico Caprara moved all in from middle position for 25,000 and DeWitt called on the button. Brett Richey then moved all in from the big blind for 39,700 more, and DeWitt called after taking a minute to think.

The hands were:

Caprara: {K-Spades} {Q-Clubs}
DeWitt: {10-Spades} {10-Hearts}
Richey: {8-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}

The board came {J-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {K-Diamonds}, with DeWitt winning the side pot, Caprara winning the main pot, and Richey was sent to the rail.

DeWitt now sits with 340,000 and Caprara is up to almost 85,000.
