Nadal Doubles through Foster

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Santiego Nadal has been quiet throughout the first two levels. He finally found a spot he liked when he moved all in for 295,000 after Joao Bauer had opened for 37,000. Bruno Foster, sitting in the small blind, asked the dealer for a count on Nadal. Then he eyed Bauer's stack and announced he was all in for about 850,000. Bauer quickly folded.

Neither Nadal nor Foster were inclined to open their cards first, but after some prompting from a floor supervisor they simultaneously flipped the cards face up.

Nadal: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Foster: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Nadal gave a short fist pump when the {q-Spades} was first off the deck, followed by {9-Hearts} and {j-Spades}. Foster asked for spades and got the first needed spade on the turn, {8-Spades}. That card gave him plenty of winning cards at the river, but the {5-Clubs} allowed Nadal to stick around. He is now up to 655,000 in chips while Foster has fallen to 550,000.
