Lex Veldhuis Recalls His Big Game Poker Show Experience
Poker player Lex Veldhuis recently shared his memories of participating in the Big Game poker show, which took place in 2010 in Las Vegas. He played against several notable players, including Vanessa Russo, and discussed key hands from the event.
Lex Veldhuis played with real money and was proud of playing 100% of his own money. He mentioned that many people asked if they played for real money and what percentage of his share he sold. He played aggressively and did not want to explain his decisions to anyone.
One of the hands Lex Veldhuis discussed involved a complex situation where he and Vanessa Russo were both in the pot. He mentioned that his strategy in the hand was questionable, and he made several decisions that he now regrets. Despite the challenges, he enjoyed the experience and the opportunity to play against such strong opponents.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
