Engel Doubles Through a Confident Zamani
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Ari Engel raised to 55,000 on the button and Martin Zamani three-bet from the big blind. Engel committed his last 290,000 into the middle and Zamani called to put Engel at risk.
Ari Engel: A♦A♣K♠5♦
Martin Zamani: Q♥Q♠9♣6♣
"You think you're gonna win it?" Engel said to Zamani as they tabled their hands.
"I would be some money on my hand if you wanna side bet," Zamani replied.
The A♥Q♦7♦ flop improved both players to a set and the 3♦ turn further improved Engel to the nut flush.
"You probably got me," Zamani conceded.
The 8♣ completed the board, keeping Engel best for the double up.
