Engel Keeps Building

Niveau 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Ari Engel is pulling away from the ten-handed field, with over a million chips more than the next-highest stacked player Pablo Melogno. His most recent chunk of change came courtesy of Ryan Olisar, who played a pot out of position that took a turn for the serious on the river. Both players having checked the turn, the board lay . Olisar checked and Engel bet 180,000. This represented just under a quarter of Olisar's remaining chips, and he thought for a while before making the call. Engel showed for two pair, the board's nine kicker. Olisar mucked his hand.
