Lex Veldhuis raised to 80,000 from middle position, and it folded back around to Doshi Suresh who called from the small blind. Greg Raymer folded from the big blind, and the flop came {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{7-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

. Suresh checked, Veldhuis bet 105,000, and Suresh called.

Both players checked the {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

on the turn. The river then brought the {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

. Suresh checked, Veldhuis bet 315,000, and Suresh made the call. Suresh turned over pocket jacks, but Veldhuis had {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{9-Hearts}

-- after getting to the river for free, he'd made that straight.

Veldhuis now has about 2 million, while Suresh is down to 430,000.
