Ari "BodogAri" Engel is off to a hot start on Day 2. While he was still unbagging his chips, we picked up a pot as the table folded around to the blinds. Greg Kolo completed from the small, and Engel raised to 8,600 from the big. After a quick pause, Kolo reraised to 33,000 total, and Engel said, "You're not messing around, are you?" He continued to fiddle with his pile of chips for a minute before announcing an all in. Kolo quickly called off his remaining ~40,000, and the cards were on their backs.
"I have kings," Engel said.
"You're good."
Showdown
Kolo: 
Engel: 
There was no funny stuff as the board ran out 
, holding Engel's kings. He's earned the first knockout of Day 2, and the pot boosts his stack up to about 240,000 and into a dead heat for the chip lead. The man he's chasing? Huy Nguyen, sitting on Engel's direct left today.
Get yer popcorn.
