Level 22
: Blinds 200,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
"Somebody give JRB some energy drinks. He's folded ten hands in a row. You've got to play, man," Rob Yong said.
"I don't need anything, thank you. Maybe some ear plugs or headphones," Jean-Robert Bellande replied.
Bellande then raised to 1,000,000 on the button and Yong called from the big blind.
Two checks followed the K♥Q♠A♥ flop to see the 4♣ hit the turn. Yong bet 1,000,000, and Bellande called.
Yong put Bellande all in for 10,2650,000 after seeing the 3♠ land on the river. Bellande took less than 30 seconds to put in the call.
Yong showed a bluff with 10♥5♦, and sent a large portion of his stack over to Bellande, who revealed K♣8♠ for second pair.
Bellande took a slight chip lead and celebrated with a few swigs of his wine.
