Floor & Supervisor Ruling Goes against Bellande
![[user196975]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Jean-Robert Bellande was sitting UTG+1 and put out 600 for an open raise. The player seated UTG had not yet acted on his hand. When the UTG said he hadn't acted yet, he proceeded to limp. Bellande had already taken his 600 back and put out 200 just to call. The UTG player said that Bellande's action must stand.
The floor was called and his ruling was that Bellande's action must stand. Bellande did not believe it should because the action had changed. Bellande asked for a floor supervisor to come over and hear his case.
The supervisor gave the same ruling as the first tournament official, specifically saying that a player's call doesn't change the action, only a fold or raise would change the action.
Then Bellande was stuck with his 600 in the pot and action folded back around to the UTG player. That player then reraised to 1,800. Bellande went into the tank with a very pained look, obviously upset that the player next to him essentially was able to check-raise for free.
Bellande folded his hand and appears to be below starting stack.
