Jean Bellande Eliminated

[user108095]

Jean Bellande stopped us on his way out the door to tell us about his bust-out hand. Bellande said he flat called a preflop raise holding ace-jack suited and bet half the pot when his opponent checked to him on a {3-?}

flop.

When a jack fell on the river, Bellande pushed for his remaining 1,700 and got called again. His opponent turned up {K-?}

and spiked a king on the river to end Bellande's day.
