Engel Earns a Double

[user66118]

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

With a limper in front of him, Ari Engel raised to 3,500 from the button, and both blinds and the original limper called to see a four-handed flop.

It came out {2-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} , and the table checked to the raiser. Engel continued out with a bet, only to see the small blind check-raise to 12,000. That folded the two monkeys in the middle, but Engel came right back over the top with another raise to 25,000 straight. After some deliberation, the small blind moved all in for about 63,000 total, and Engel called all in for his last 55,600 to put himself at risk.

Showdown
Engel: {2-Clubs} {6-Clubs}
Small blind: {K-Diamonds} {10-Hearts}

The {5-Hearts} turn brought another nine outs for the small blind to catch up, but the river {J-Clubs} failed to connect with his hand. He's been crippled down under 9,000 now, while Engel's double moves him up to about 125,000.
