Engel Off to a Good Start

Level 2 : 25/50, 0 ante

Ari Engel just opened the button to 125 and the small blind immediately folded. The shortstack in the big blind made the call however and they took a look at the flop: {4-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}. The big blind checked to Engel who opted to check behind.

That was the last time we saw Engel checking in this hand though. The turn brought the {9-Diamonds} and the big blind check-called 175. The river completed the board with the {3-Hearts} and this time Engel bet 400 when it was checked to him. The big blind called but had to muck when Engel showed his {6-Spades}{9-Hearts}. The big blind has to continue his tournament with just 575 in chips, while Engel is up to more than 6,600.
