Veldhuis Hanging in There
Livello 18
: 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Lex Veldhuis' stack has remaining fairly steady throughout the day, neither growing or shrinking too much, but he was able to chip up some in a recent hand.
Veldhuis opened to 12,000 from the button and both blinds called.
Everyone checked the 
flop. When the 
hit the turn, the big blind led out for 6,000 and the other two players called. Both blinds checked to Veldhuis on the 
river, and Veldhuis fired an 18,000 bet. The small blind folded but the big called and mucked when Veldhuis tabled 
.
Veldhuis is currently sitting with about 160,000.
