Hewitt Chews Up Appel
After a massive preflop raising war, John Hewitt and Eric Appel went heads-up to a flop that read 
. Appel open-shoved and Hewitt snap-called, quickly tabling 
for trips, much to the embarrassment of Appel, who showed 
.
The 
on the turn gave Appel a glimmer of hope, but the river 
was not what he was looking for and he paid the ultimate price for his aggression.
"What a way to go, huh?" Appel lamented as he left the Amazon Room. No worries for Hewitt though - he's clearly our new chip leader!
