Blimey, we wouldn’t want to be facing off with the cool, stone-faced Rafael Nadal at a poker table.
The 14-time tennis Grand Slam winner sat down with Ronaldo – sorry, that should be The Ronaldo – for a charity poker match in London last night and, inevitably, won. That’s what he does. He wins things.
The event, hosted by PokerStars, offered a $50,000 purse which the Spaniard vowed to give to The Rafa Nadal Foundation after his victory.
Nadal is no stranger to the poker circuit, once beating professional Daniel Negreanu in a previous tournament. And, whilst Ronaldo may have taken defeat hard this time round, he has now called out fellow Brazilian striker, Neymar, as his next opponent.
