Bellande Doing Work

We weren't kidding about the action on Table 12. We pick up another hand on the flop with the board showing {A-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {4-Clubs}. Two players check over to Jean-Robert Bellande, who makes a bet of 4,000. David Williams makes the call, and a player behind him moves all in over top of the table from the button position.

Bellande asks, "How much," but before the dealer can count it down, he makes up his mind: "I call, I call, I call." Williams ducks out, showing {A-?} {J-?}, and the hands of the live players are turned over:

Bellande: {6-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}

The turn and river are favorable to Bellande, coming {J-Diamonds} and {3-Spades} respectively. He earns his second giant pot within just a few hands, this time knocking out a player and vaulting back up to 81,000.
