Veldhuis Still Rollin'

The cutoff seat raised to 450 and Lex Veldhuis called from the button. The flop came down {J-Spades} {J-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}. The preflop raiser continued into Lex with a bet of 750. Veldhuis made the call.

The turn brought the {3-Diamonds} and Veldhuis called a bet of 1,900 from his opponent.

After the river came the {7-Clubs}, both players checked. The first player showed {A-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}, but Veldhuis held a slightly better hand with {8-Hearts} {8-Clubs} and scooped the pot.

One player at the table commented on Lex's hot run to kick off his tournament by saying, "Can I move tables please?!?!" Lex has over 100,000 chips.
