Millard Hale Doubles via Kevin Saul Again

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

A short-stacked Francisco Izquierdo moved all-in for his last 11,000 and Kevin Saul reraised to 24,000. Millard Hale jammed pot - 90,500 total - leaving himself with 5,000 behind. It was folded back to Saul who went into the tank. "The last one didn't hurt too much. This one would," said Saul, as he mulled over what to do. Ultimately, he decided to make the call and the cards were turned over:

Hale: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}
Saul: {10-Spades}{8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
Izquierdo: {Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

Upon seeing Izquierdo's hand, Saul said, "That's not very good for me." Upon seeing the flop come {K-Spades}{10-Clubs}{3-Spades}, Saul resolved, "That's good for me." He now had a spade flush draw. The turn and river were not good, though, as it came {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and Hale doubled up, Saul moved down to 225,000 in chips and Izquierdo was eliminated.
