Spain Outkicks Belland
There was 2,700 in the middle from preflop action in a four-way pot between Yao Yin in early position, Brittany Spain on his direct left, a player in middle position, and Steven Belland, who was on the button. The flop came .
Yao was first to act and checked. Spain then bet 1,100 and received a fold from the middle-position player, a call from Belland, and a fold from Yao.
Action went heads up to the turn and Spain checked. Belland put out a bet of 2,600 and Spain made the call, bringing the river where both players checked to take the hand to showdown.
Spain looked up at Belland to see if he would show first. He did not. She gave a half shrug and tabled .
"Tens and sevens with a king kicker," announced the dealer. Belland looked back at his hand and then sent it to the muck, turning over in the process to show that he had been outkicked by Spain's king.
