Benefield vs. DeWitt for Rollz

On the second hand back from break, David Benefield opened the pot with an early-position raise to 95,000. Jason DeWitt promptly three-bet to 240,000 a few seats over, and the table folded back to Benefield. He didn't waste too much time announcing an all in for another 1.015 million on top. DeWitt asked for the count before calling for about half of his own stack, Benefield now at risk for his tournament life. And flipping for more than 2.5 million chips:

Benefield: {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds}
DeWitt: {A-Spades} {K-Hearts}

There wasn't much to sweat on a clean board that ran {3-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {7-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {3-Clubs}. That holds Benefield's pair, earning him the largest pot thus far and doubling him up to 2.58 million

DeWitt has gone from chip leader to the middle of the pack with 1.35 million left in his stack.
