Short-Stacked Veldhuis' Main Event Dreams Crushed
Level 17
: Blinds 7,000/14,000, 1,750 ante
Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis raised to 30,800 on the button, leaving himself only 20,845 chips behind. Pedro "gusmaa" Gusma then put in the rest as well from the big blind and Veldhuis made the call.
Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis: J♥7♦
Pedro "gusmaa" Gusma: A♦6♦
The 3♠4♠A♠ flop left Veldhuis with little hope, and the 2♦ turn sealed the deal for the popular PokerStars streamer. He could do nothing but look on as the meaningless 8♦ river completed the board, and was eliminated from the tournament.
