Bellande Runs Into Trouble on First Hand

We got over to Jean-Robert Bellande's table to see him sitting in the small blind, involved with a player acting under the gun. When we got there the board read {4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. Bellande checked and his opponent fired 2,000 into the pot.

Bellande laughed and shook his head, saying "You made that straight huh? Some sick shit, first hand. I don't have the flush, I'm going to call you."

After Bellande put his 2,000 into the pot, the dealer tabled the {4-Diamonds} on the river, a dangerous card considering what was already on the board.

Bellande checked the river and folded when his opponent bet 7,000.
