Niveau 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

We found Ari Engel in the hijack with a three-bet of 16,500 in front of him after his neighbor opened to 5,500. That player made it 39,500 to go, and Engel used a time extension in response. He said he was all in, and his opponent double-checked his holding and called for about 135,000.

The flop did nothing for either player, but the caused Engel's opponent to mutter something in his native tongue. A finished out the board for good measure.
