We don't see bends "sucked" out of rivers. As bends, called meanders, form in rivers, we'll eventually see that the current flow will begin to "cut into" the bank that is confining and turning the flow. That translates into uncercutting and eventual "cutting through" of the bend or meander. If we look at large rivers and back away from them to see where they once flowed, we'll see meanders that have been cut off and are now isolated from the flow.
