Nadal Keeps Building with Elimination of Alkalay
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Cards were on their backs with Jose Nadal in middle position seemingly on the verge of doubling up Adi Alkalay who had about 150,000 under the gun, but there were still five cards to come.
Adi Alkalay: A?A?
Jose Nadal: J?J?
The flop immediately brought Nadal the help he needed, falling J?8?3?, giving him a leading set of jacks.
The board completed Q?2?, failing to bring Alkalay one of the two remaining outs he needed to survive, as Nadal continued to grow one of the biggest stacks in the room.
