Game Over for Veldhuis and Aido

Level 17 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis lost a big portion of his stack blind-on-blind with {a-Diamonds}{2-Spades} against the {k-Spades}{k-Hearts} of "OLD TIME GIN" when the chips went in preflop and the {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Hearts}{9-Spades} board provided no help for the Dutchman.

Soon after Sergio "zcedrick" Aido departed from the same table as his {a-Spades}{9-Clubs} had a kicker problem against Daniel "DANMERRRRRRR" Merrilees with the {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. Aido was merely hoping for a chop after the {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{k-Spades} turn and the {3-Spades} river bricked.

Three hands later, Veldhuis found a pair in {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} but Gianluca "Tankanza" Speranza on the button held the superior pair in {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}. The {a-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} board changed nothing whatsoever.
