Ari Engel waited as long as he could before ending up all in for his last 70,000 in the big blind. Action folded around to the button where Bryn Kenney moved all in for 935,000, putting the last action on Jason Mercier in the small blind. He spent a few minutes pondering, then called to put both players at risk.

The board ran out , and Mercier flopped an ace to win the double knockout pot.
