Engel Over Two Million

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

With 600,000 chips in the middle, Ari Engel bet 265,000 when first to act on a {k-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{2-Hearts} board. His opponent thought for a short while before flinging the chips in for the call.

Engel turned over {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} and that was good enough to take down the pot and move up over two million in chips.

Karayan Doubles With Queens

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Ari Engel opened the action with a raise from under the gun and one player called from middle position. The action folded around to Vitaly Karayan in the big blind, and he moved in for around 180,000. Engel thought for a minute before he folded and the third player in the pot called.

Vitaly Karayan: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Opponent: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

Board: {2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{q-Spades}{j-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

Kararyan hit top set on the flop, and it was needed after his opponent hit a set of turn as well. But Kararyan's top set held and secured him a full double.
