Championship: Another Knockout For Ari Engel

$3,500 Seminole Hard Rock RRPO Championship
Level 18: 3,000/6,000 with a 1,000 ante
Players Remaining: 84 of 760

Ari Engel was responsible for at least two eliminations during the last level, and he’s started the new level in much the same fashion.

Engel opened the last pot to 15,000 in early position, and Franco Riccobon three-bet shoved for just over 100,000 on the button. Engel called to put him at risk.

Engel: TdTc
Riccobon: KhJs

The board ran out AcQhQs9h6h, and Engel won the flip to send Riccobon to the rail. He’s been steadily climbing the leaderboard since returning from dinner, and he’s now sitting with about 100 big blinds as the bubble approaches.

Ari Engel – 595,000 (99 bb)
