PokerStars Offers Players The Chance to Have an Event Named in Their Honour; Jason Somerville Takes RunItUp on the DSPT

PokerStars has renamed a $22 Pot-Limit Omaha daily tournament The Lex Veldhuis Open, and opened up a challenge to all players to have the event renamed in their honour; Jason Somerville RunItUp show joins the Deepstacks Poker Tour in Calgary, Canada.

You may remember Lex Veldhuis as the man who once kicked Bertrand ‘ElkY’ Grospellier’s head into the atmosphere surrounding Mars, but rumour has it he’s also a pretty good poker player.

The Team PokerStars Pro has a popular Twitch stream where he provides thrills and spills for his 11,741 followers playing under his pseudonym RaSZi.

The Dutchman has been quite a hit in the PokerStars daily $22 Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO) Six-Max Turbo event, so much so, that PokerStars offered him a unique challenge.
