Lex Rams Kings Into Aces

Diego Rodriguez raised to 6,500 from early position before Lex Veldhuis three-bet to 19,000. The cutoff, Yohann Yoci [Removed:250], flat-called the three-bet and action folded back around to Rodriguez. He put in another raise and made it 51,000 to go. Lex studied [Removed:250] the most as action fell back on him, staring at him to get a read. Then, Veldhuis five-bet to 204,000 with two giant stacks of chips. [Removed:250] moved all in from the cutoff and Rodriguez quickly folded.

Lex was visible upset when [Removed:250] went all in, as if he just knew he had aces. Veldhuis turned up {K-Spades} {K-Clubs} and was met by [Removed:250]'s aces -- {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}.

The board ran out {A-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {2-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} and Lex was out a total of 132,300 chips. He now has about 360,000 left.
