Engel Hurting Early

When we arrived at Ari Engel's table he was involved in a small pot that saw him and one opponent play it down on a {2-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{k-Hearts} board. Angel brought it in with a 25 chip preflop and only the player on the button made the call. On the flop, Engel led for 100 and his opponent called.

When both players checked the turn and river, Engel would muck his cards at the sight of his opponent's {j-Spades}{7-Spades}. Event though that was a small pot, Engel has struggled early and is down to only 700 in chips.
