Veldhuis Having a Bit of Fun

Lex Veldhuis seems quite comfortable at his table in a corner of the Blue Section. He's been steadily chipping up since play started. In a recent hand, a player checked a {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} flop to Veldhuis, then called Veldhuis' bet of 2,750. The turn was the {q-Hearts}. Veldhuis' opponent checked again and folded to a bet of 5,000, flashing {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts} -- a pair of tens -- in the process. Veldhuis responded by opening just one of his cards: the {2-Spades}.

Veldhuis now has 43,000.
