ElkY and Lex Veldhuis: A Thai boxing match before the WSOP
In addition to major tournaments that characterize global poker, crazy bets between professional players in this field are also news that attract more followers of poker today. Generally, these prop bets have nothing to do directly with the poker world, it's only the practitioners of this cards game that are the main concerned. The last crazy bet of the moment that is prepared currently, still unofficial, is the next fight in a boxing ring in the U.S. capital of gambling, Las Vegas, of two famous poker players, the French Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier and the Dutchman Lex "rasz" Veldhuis.
According to information provided by the Dutch on his Twitter account, this Muay Thai between the two friends, who are also former pro Starcraft gamers, will be held in Las Vegas a week before the beginning of the prestigious World Series of Poker tournament in May 2011. For this boxing duel of Thai kickboxing, Lex "rasz" Veldhuis predicted already on his victory, and is ready to take all kinds of bet, unlike Bertrand "ElkY" who simply follow a training taught by a French former world champion in boxing. In the same vein, note also that there are some expected fighting between firstly the players Gus Hansen and Theo Jorgensen, and secondly the pro player Liv Boeree versus the poker reporter Melissa Castello.
