Veldhuis Having a Bit of Fun

[user75032]

Lex Veldhuis seems quite comfortable at his table in a corner of the Blue Section. He's been steadily chipping up since play started. In a recent hand, a player checked a {9-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} flop to Veldhuis, then called Veldhuis' bet of 2,750. The turn was the {q-Hearts} . Veldhuis' opponent checked again and folded to a bet of 5,000, flashing {a-Hearts} {10-Hearts} -- a pair of tens -- in the process. Veldhuis responded by opening just one of his cards: the {2-Spades} .
