Adam Kagin took a dominating chip lead into his heads-up battle with Ari Engel, and despite doubling the New Yorker up once, he closed the deal.

Kagin opened to 10,000 and called when Engel shoved for 116,000.

Kagin: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Engel: {j-Spades}{10-Hearts}

The board ran {k-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} to make him two-pair.
