"They Got Me"

Lex Veldhuis
Lex Veldhuis

Action folded to Lex Veldhuis in the cutoff seat and he raised to 700. His raise was called by both players in the small blind and the big blind to see the flop come down {9-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}.

On the flop, both blinds checked and Veldhuis bet 1,500. The small blind folded, but the big blind called.

The turn was the {A-Clubs} and the big blind checked. Veldhuis bet 3,200 and his opponent made the call. Then, the {A-Diamonds} paired the board on the river and both players checked.

The big blind tabled the {9-Spades}{6-Clubs} for two pair, aces and nines. Veldhuis mucked, looked at the PokerNews reporter and said, "They got me."
