Big One For Ari

[user162117]

We arrived at Table 28 with a {8-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {10-Hearts} flop showing and a big pot building between Ari Engel and Neil Lusher. Engel was on the button and at this point both players were committing a bet of 17,000 and the dealer was flipping over a {6-Hearts} turn. Lusher led for 25,000 here and Angel thought for a long time before making the call.

River: {7-Spades}

Lusher had around 35,000 behind at this point and he opted to quickly check. Engel again took his time before asking if he could see Lusher's stack. After studying the chips, Engel bet 13,600. Lusher didn't take too long to call, which would prompt Engel to turn over {8-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} . That was enough to pick up the handy pot, with Lusher sending his cards into the muck.
