Lex Veldhuis Scores a Knockout with Kings

After a limp from "stendobans" in the cutoff, Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis raised to 1,750 on the button. The blinds got out of the way before the limper made the call to see the flop.

On the J42 flop, "stendobans" led out for 2,365. Veldhuis raised to 6,250. "stendobans" three-bet shoved, putting themselves at risk for 21,430 effective. Veldhuis made the call and the cards were on their backs.

"stendobans": 66
Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis: KK

Veldhuis was a massive favorite, and after the A turn just needed to fade a six on the river. The 7 was clean, and Veldhuis scooped the pot with his kings.

Colillas Makes a Straight

Level 8 : Blinds 200/400, 50 ante

After "SargentoFAHUR" opened to 1,080 from the cutoff, he received two callers: "Spor1sh01" in the small blind, and Ramon "RamonColillas" Colillas in the big blind.

On the 76K flop, the blinds checked over to the original raiser. He bet 1,201, getting called by both opponents. On the 3 turn, "Spor1sh01" again checked, but Colillas chose aggression on this street, firing out 2,600. The preflop aggressor got out of the way before the small blind made the call.

On the K river, "Spor1sh01" check-called a bet of 7,000 from Colillas. Colillas tabled 45 for a straight, as his opponent mucked their hand, giving the pot north of 26,000 to the PokerStars Ambassador.

Smooth Sailing Continues for Chip Leader

Level 7 : Blinds 175/350, 45 ante

After a limp from "davjul777", "clinker_boat" raised to 1,400 from the hijack. Action folded back to the limper, who three bet to 5,040. "clinker_boat" called, sending the two to the flop.

The 9KK flop was checked through, leading to the 8 turn card. "davjul777" led out 10,920, a pot-sized bet. "clinker_boat" moved all in, putting "davjul777" at risk with the effective stack just over 40,000. He made the call. Following the call, the J came on the river as the pair tabled their hands with over 94,000 in the middle.

"davjul777": 38
"clinker_boat": 1010

The pocket pair was enough to take down the pot, returning "clinker_boat" to the chip lead while knocking "davjul777" out of the tournament.
