Veldhuis Crippled by Cooler

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

We caught the action as Veldhuis and his opponent, who was all in preflop, were flipping up their cards. Veldhuis showed {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} but grimaced when his opponent showed {a-Hearts}{a-Spades} for the classic preflop cooler. The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{6-Spades}, and Veldhuis lost the hand, dropping to just 900 in chips.
