Bellande Wins His First Pot; Yong Shows the Goods
Level 17
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Thomas Eychenne raised K♣Q♦ from early position and only Jean-Robert Bellande called from the button.
Eychenne decided to check-fold versus Bellande's bet of 200,000 on the 9♥5♦6♣ flop.
The next hand, Rob Yong raised from early position to 350,000, and Artur Martirosian called with K♥9♦ in the big blind.
Both players checked all the way to the river on the 7♣6♠4♥A♣10♠ runout, and after Martirosian checked for the last time, Yong bet 450,000. Martirosian folded, and Yong revealed A♠J♣ for a pair of aces.
