We were just thinking, "I wonder how many chips Jason DeWitt has" when we looked up to see him walking past our desk. He had a shirt in one hand, an empty bottle of water in the other, and he was slowly meandering through the room and towards the exit. He stopped off at a buddy's table, and although we're too far away to have heard the bad beat story, there was a lot of shrugging and shaking of the head and frowning, and DeWitt eventually made his way out into the maze of slot machines on the casino floor.
DeWitt's Main Event is over.
A player in middle position opened his second consecutive pot to 1,600, and Ted Bort was one of two callers to come along to the flop.
It brought 
, and the raiser continued out with another 1,600 chips. Bort asked for an eyeball of his stack before raising to 4,000, and that was enough to win him the pot.
"Don't mess with the big dog!" Bort said. "Bow-wow yippee-o bow-wow."
Bort is up to about 27,000 again.
On the flop of 
, "Captain" Tom Franklin checked to Aaron Kanter. Kanter fired 1,500 and Franklin made the call.
The turn completed a possible heart draw with the 
hitting the felt. Franklin led out for 2,500 and Kanter mucked his hand.
"No more tickling," said Franklin.
Steve Brown open-limped from middle position and the player in the hijack seat limped as well. The button also limped and after the small blind folded, the big blind checked his option.
The flop came down 
and action check around to the player on the button. He fired 1,775 and only Brown made the call.
The turn brought the 
and Brown checked. The button fired a big bet of 10,000. Brown couldn't call and mucked his hand. He's still got 82,000 in chips though.
