Team Pro Civil War; Lodden Doubles Through Veldhuis

Johnny Lodden
Johnny Lodden

Well, it was almost inevitable that our two Team PokerStars Pros would tangle up in a big pot at some point. They stayed away from each other for as long as they could, but the deck finally set them up with a big all-in showdown. It was Veldhuis making the first raise to 60,000, and Lodden was the three-bettor to 160,000 total. Veldhuis shoved for 941,000, and Lodded called all in for 905,000, putting another big pot up for grabs and the tournament lives of both players in question.

Showdown
Veldhuis: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}
Lodden: {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds}

The two were flipping for it all, and Lodden shot out to a huge lead on the {K-Spades} {K-Clubs} {4-Hearts} flop. The turn {J-Spades} was the wrong paint card for Veldhuis, and the river {8-Diamonds} failed to bring him any two-out goodness.

The ladies betray the Dutchman, and he's been crippled all the way down to just 36,000.
