After two hands where first Veldhuis 3-bet Sudworth off a hand, then Sudworth responded with one of his own, making it 3,200 in total on top of Veldhuis' initial 1,000.
Veldhuis made the call and the flop came . Sudworth bet 3,600 and Veldhuis raised to 9,700 before Sudworth reraised all-in and Veldhuis called.
Veldhuis:
Sudworth:
A virtual flip then saw the come on the turn giving Veldhuis a flush draw but the river meant Sudworth dodged every bullet and left the Dutchman with just about 1,600 left.
All-in with the next hand against Sudworth's , Veldhuis couldn't hit on the board and the young Englishman goes through to the semi-finals.
Certainly, the speed of this game goes to show difference in style of the online players versus the older school live players.
It's very much a waiting game in the match between Vicky Coren and Juha Helppi, the last five hands there were no flops seen. The button either raising to win the blinds or folding preflop.
Luke Schwartz raised to 800 and Veldhuis reraised to 2,300. Schwartz thought for a second before folding then said, "I knew that was coming too, I folded an ace..."
"Really?" said a smiling but slightly shocked Veldhuis, "I figured I had to 3-bet some s**t before I get kings again."
A couple of hands later and Schwartz raised to 800, Veldhuis reraised to 2,300 and Schwartz moved all-in. Instant call.

Veldhuis, "It would be pretty sick to lose another coinflip..."
"Just put some paint out there please dealer..." said Schwartz
