All Fun and Games at the Team Pro Table
Lex Veldhuis and Victoria Coren seem to be having a good time at their table as both of them have been gathering a lot of chips over the past hour. When we walked by, Veldhuis was all smiles and was playing with the dealer button while drinking a beer.
In a recent hand, one player moved all in for 16,100 from middle position, and action folded to Veldhuis who moved all-in over the top.

and had his opponent crushed, who was holding the 
.
The flop fell 
giving Veldhuis a pair and a royal flush draw, leaving his opponent drawing dead to a chop or running 8s.
The turn was the 
and the river was the 
awarding Veldhuis the pot and moving him up to 46,000 chips. At the other end of the table, Victoria Coren has chipped up to nearly 70,000.
