Dixon Ruecker Crippled

We weren't certain who was the all-in player in a hand between Dixon Ruecker and Sam Capra. Ruecker opened from the big blind for 50,000; Capra was next to act and made it 190,000 to go. Ruecker went into the tank for several minutes before moving all in. Capra called.

Ruecker: {K-Clubs} {J-Hearts}
Capra: {6-Spades} {6-Diamonds}

Both players had reached the stage of the tournament where they were willing to take a race. This one went to Capra on a board of {Q-Clubs} {5-Spades} {3-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}. His sixes held, to the loud cheers of several Capra supporters on the rail. When the stacks were counted down, Ruecker was left with 30,000. Capra is on 1.0 million now.

Ruecker was the button on the next hand and folded after Richard Ashby limped in.
