Level 9 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Action was picked up in a three-way pot between Jean-Robert Bellande in the hijack, Rafael Mota on the button, and Joao Simao in the big blind.

The flop rolled out 10♥9♣2♦ and Simao checked over to Bellande, who bet the pot of 35,000. Mota raised to 70,000 to see Simao fold and Bellande called to put himself at risk for 62,000.

Jean-Robert Bellande: 9♠6♠6♣2♣ All in
Rafael Mota: K♣Q♦J♥5♥

Mota hit his straight on the turn Q♣ and held on the river 3♥ to see Bellande exit the tournament in the second to last level of the night.
