Local lad lucks out

Local boy Nicolas Garcia has just doubled-up, to his delight, through PokerStars qualifier Raul Manzano. Alex Brenes opened proceedings with a raise to 900 from UTG before Garcia and Manzano moved all-in one after the other from late position. Brenes thought for a while but let his hand to.

Garcia: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Manzano: {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Garcia was in bad shape but got out of it on the {a-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} board. He’s up to 16,000 now, whereas Manzano is down to 24,000.
