Event #44: $50,000 Poker Players Championship

The Limit Hold'em round just finished, and Jean-Robert Bellande came out of it with a chip increase. There were only two significant hands.

In the first, Mike Gorodinsky raises the button to 300,000, and Bellande three-bets to 450,000. Gorodinsky calls. The flop comes    , and Gorodinsky calls a bet of 150,000. Bellande bets another 300,000 on the   turn, and Gorodinsky folds.

Two hands later, Gorodinsky opens the button to 300,000 again, and Bellande calls. The board runs out      , and Gorodinsky does the betting on the flop and turn. The river goes check-check, and Bellande shows    to win the pot with a bluff catcher.

Jean-Robert Bellande - 8,200,000
Mike Gorodinsky - 4,400,000
