Jarvis Looks Up Iacofano

Matt Jarvis opened to 37,000 from the cutoff, Kevin Iacofano three-bet to 92,000 on the button, and Jarvis called.

The flop fell {j-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}, and Jarvis checked to Iacofano who continued for 105,000. Jarvis called.

Both players checked when the {9-Diamonds} turned, and the river brought the {2-Spades}. Jarvis checked a third time, and Iacofano slid out 170,000. Jarvis asked Iacofano how much he had behind - 248,000 - and went deep into the tank, removing his signature white Oakley sunglasses.

He studied Iacofano long and hard before finally sliding out enough green T25,000 chips to make the call.

"Nice call," Iacofano said, turning over {a-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for ace-high.

Jarvis tabled {j-Spades}{9-Spades} for two pair, and won the pot.
