Lex Veldhuis (born 29 December 1983) is a Dutch professional poker player from Vlissingen, Netherlands. ==History== In his youth Veldhuis began playing StarCraft, in which he became a notable player. During one of the international events he met the French player Bertrand Grospellier. Grospellier made him enthusiastic about playing poker, which the Frenchman already did, and Veldhuis began playing poker online. In 2005 Grospellier even deposited Veldhuis' first $10 at PokerStars.〔(PokerStars.com - Biography of Lex Veldhuis )〕 Later he began to play live tournaments as well, but wasn't used to the slow pace. Online, he was used to playing very fast, and many tables at a time. While playing live, he often complained about the slow pace of the game. He met professional tennis player Raemon Sluiter, who advised him about sports mentality. Later Veldhuis helped and mentored Sluiter's girlfriend Fátima Moreira de Melo with her professional poker career. Veldhuis was knocked out of the WSOP Vegas 2009 on day 2 after finishing high in day 1 through bluffs, which eventually caught him and ended his main event competition without cashing. As of 2015, Veldhuis has over $600,000 in live tournament winnings. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lex Veldhuis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
