Veteran in Love takes Bodog.com $100k

Ten was the charmed number for his cards, but $25,000 is likely Veteran in Love's new favorite figure, as that's what he walked away with from Bodog.com's Sunday $100k guaranteed yesterday.

Attendance was up to 927 players for the Bodog.com Sunday tourney this week, but none of them could best Veteran in Love, who parlayed a few key hands involving tens into a nice weekend payday.

The first: When play hit three-handed, and he called an all-in bet from fellow final-tabler rvrmonkey with pocket tens.

rvrmonkey showed Ac-5s, and two blanks (including a meaningless ten) sent him home in third place.

The final hand also came down to the magic tens, when his heads-up foe Vatche pushed all-in with 9h-2h and was called by Veteran In Love with 10h-5c.

The flop came Jh-10c-3d to put Veteran In Love in the lead, and a ten on the turn definitively finished it off, sending Vatche home in second place and leaving Veteran to revel in his victory.

Here are the rest of your final table results:

Place Name Prize
1st Veteran In Love $25,000
2nd Vatche $14,000
3rd rvrmonkey $9,000
4th frankc $6,500
