Lex Up to His Old Tricks

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Lex Veldhuis min-raised to 2,000 from the button and found one caller in the big blind. The flop came {J-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} and both players checked. The {5-Diamonds} fell on the turn and again both players checked. When the {5-Clubs} came on the river...both players checked.

Veldhuis' opponent flipped up a {Q-}{10-} and Veldhuis sheepishly revealed a {9-}{2-} - which was good enough to scoop the pot.

Veldhuis is sitting with approximately 80,000 as we approach the bubble.
