Nader Doubles on Bubble

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Amjad Nader moved all in from the button with his short stack of about eight big blinds. Benjamin Hammann called in the big blind without looking at his cards. They players waited for the other hands to play out and Hammann did not look at his hand until it was time to run the board.

Amjad Nader: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Benjamin Hammann: {4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

The flop came {3-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{a-Clubs} to give Nader two pair and give Hammann the wheel draw. The turn was the {j-Hearts}. Nader just needed to fade a five to survive and the river was the {9-Clubs} to confirm his double up.
