Normand Spends the First Hand in the Blender

Livello 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

The action folded around to the small blind who limped in and Frederic Normand raised to 800 in the big blind. His opponent called and the flop came Q♥J♥7♥. The small blind checked to Normand who bet 400 and his opponent called.

The turn brought the 4♠ and the small blind checked again. Normand sized up a bet of 1,600 this time and his opponent still called. The river was the 10♠ and the small blind instantly led out with a bet of 3,000. Normand went into the tank for well over three minutes on the first hand.

"Sorry guys," he said after a couple of minutes which got some chuckles from the table. Normand eventually called and his opponent showed K♥ for a missed flush draw while Normand held 4♣4♦ for a set of fours.
