Veldhuis "Needed This One" for a Double

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Lex Veldhuis
Lex Veldhuis

Lex Veldhuis raised to 1,100 and was called only by Michael Sklenicka from one seat over. The {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop was checked by both players and Veldhuis bet the {5-Spades} turn for 3,400 with 10,100 behind, picking up a call from Sklenicka.

Both headed to the {8-Hearts} river on which Veldhuis bet 10,000, leaving a single chip behind. Sklenicka called and mucked his {k-Spades}{q-Clubs} after he was shown the {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} by the Dutchman.

"You needed this one," Sklenicka joked and Veldhuis instantly replied "no shit" with a smile on the face.

"The next time from someone else, please," Sklenicka added.
