Putt-Putt Distraction

Justin Smith put out a bet of of 700 on the turn with the board reading {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, got a call from a player in middle position and a tank from Matt Jarvis in the small blind. Young, Chris DeMaci and another player at his table were busy talking about high-stakes putt-putt golf games when Jarvis check raised to 3,250 from the small blind. Young made the call and continued the conversation.

The river came {3-Hearts} and Jarvis put Young all in for his last 3,400 (He had a re-buy chip behind also). Young almost seemed surprised when it happened as he looked at his hand and folded to fall down to 8,400. Jarvis on the other hand is tearing it up and is up to 22,000 after falling to around 5,000 early on.
