Veldhuis Busts Spragg; Silver Felts Tovar

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

The clash of the two PokerStars ambassadors seemed inevitable for some time and Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis had been busy with raising the button and into the big blind of Ben "Spraggy" Spragg previously. He just did so again right before the blinds went up and min-raised to 200,000, which Spragg called with six big blinds behind.

Spragg jammed the {6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} flop and was called instantly.

Ben "Spraggy" Spragg: {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

The {8-Diamonds} turn provided some chop outs but the {k-Spades} river came up blank to eliminate Spragg in 30th place.

David "deivid29" Tovar followed to the rail moments later. The UK-based Spaniard raised from early position to 210,000 and was called by Max "goodeh99" Silver on the button. Tovar check-called for 250,000 on the {q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop and did so again for 625,000 on the {6-Diamonds} turn.

Tovar had fewer than 12 big blinds behind to the {a-Spades} river and spent a long time in the tank before check-calling the shove with {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} only to see Silver turn over {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades} for aces and sixes.
