Jean-Robert Bellande Takes a Hit

With the board reading {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {9-Spades} {6-Clubs} {7-Spades} a player led out for 200 and Jean-Robert Bellande raised to 700. The other player called and Bellande said, "Two pair," slapping down the {7-Clubs} {9-Diamonds}. The other player tabled {7-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} for the rivered set and took down the 1,800 pot. Bellande lost some chips but things might've been worse if the other player had raised.
