: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Jean-Robert Bellande raised to 240,000 in the cutoff and Emilien Pitavy called in the big blind.
The flop came A♥10♥Q♠ and Bellande bet 175,000. Pitavy then raised to 920,000.
"Can't win with top pair. Deal me out if I can't win with top pair," Bellande said as he tossed the A♣ into the muck.
Bellande then raised to 250,000 the next hand and Biao Ding called in the big blind.
Bellande continued for 250,000 on the 9♠2♣A♣ flop and Ding called. Ding led out for 300,000 on the 9♥ turn, and Bellande called.
The river was the 10♥ and Ding checked to Bellande, who bet 325,000. Ding folded.
"Now we're playing the game, boys. You guys keep making these great laydowns, how am I supposed to win?" Bellande said to his tablemates.
