Alan 'BodogAri' Engel
Alan 'BodogAri' Engel
Alan 'BodogAri' Engel was eliminated from the tournament immediately following the break after losing a coinflip to Nikolay Evdakov. Ari made it 40,000 to go before the flop holding pocket jacks and Nikolay Evdakov then re-raised all in, putting Engel to a decision for the remainder of his chips. Ari made the call and found himself up against Evdakov's {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}.

The board panned out {7-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} giving Nikolay two pair, aces and sevens, effectively eliminating Engel from the tournament in 27th place.
