Ari Engel Eliminated in 12th Place ($60,980)

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Ari Engel

Ari Engel opened to 25,000 from the cutoff and Christopher Kruk called from the big blind. The flop fell {j-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Kruk check-called a bet of 30,000 from Engel.

The turn brought the {9-Hearts} and Kruk checked again. Engel pushed all in for 175,000 and Kruk went into the tank. After using up two of his time banks, Kruk finally counted out a call and the cards were tabled. Engel showed {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} for just king high and Kruk surprisingly rolled over {5-Spades}{3-Spades} for bottom pair. The river bricked off with the {a-Hearts} and Engel's tournament came to an end.

"Wow, calling station," Steffen Sontheimer said to Kruk. "I thought Justin was the calling station."
