Veldhuis in Amongst It
Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis has been involved in a large number of pots in the first level though his near starting stack may not reflect it at first glance. He dropped over 15,000 in the first half of Level one, but back they came in a couple of hands in a row, the first blind on blind vs. "onlymany" who led 500 on a 
flop. Veldhuis made the call, and again to a second lead of 1,250 on the

.
Another rivered two pair came along seconds later, as a three-way hand vs. Pascal "P?ffchen" Hartmann (big blind) and "ja.sam.gale" (under the gun plus one) saw Veldhuis check back the button on a flop of 
. Hartmann checked the turn, "ja.sam.gale" bet 2,000, and Veldhuis alone called. On the 
river, "ja.sam.gale" bet out 8,000, called quickly by Veldhuis with 
; his opponent's 
went into the muck.
Recent entry Andrey "Anjeyyy" Novak is on the same table, with over 115,000 at the first break.
