Engel Eliminates Andrew Chen in Sick Runout

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Ari Engel shoved all in from the small blind for about 180,000, and Andrew Chen called for about 140,000, tabling his {k-Spades}{j-Spades}. Engel had {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}.

"Call?" the dealer asked.

"Depends what the flop is," Chen joked.

"Well, any time he flops a pair, you'll flop a draw, so you call," someone said.

Sure enough, it came {10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}, giving Engel a pair and Chen a draw. The {9-Hearts} turn filled that draw, and Engel needed a jack for a bigger straight. The river: {j-Diamonds}, shipping the pot to Engel.
