Lex Gets Respect

A player in middle position opened to 700 and Sammy Farha called in the hijack. The cutoff called as well and it was then on Lex Veldhuis on the button. Usually the aggressor, Veldhuis popped it to 3,500 total on cue. The initial raiser folded and Farha said, “My chance to double up”. Veldhuis responded, “Ya, I’m good at that.” Farha laid his hand down though as did the cutoff as Veldhuis won the pot.
