Jarvis Fires Three Barrels, No Flinching From Filtz

Level 28 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Justin Filtz
Justin Filtz

Matt Jarvis opened with a raise to 110,000 from the small blind/button, and Justin Filtz called. The flop came {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} and Filtz checked. Jarvis bet 120,000, and Filtz made the call. The turn brought the {A-Clubs} and another check from Filtz. This time Jarvis bet 210,000, and Filtz called once more.

The river brought the {9-Hearts}. Filtz checked again, and Jarvis cut out a bet of 465,000. Filtz thought a few seconds, then called. Jarvis showed one card -- a {Q-} -- while Filtz turned over {A-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} for aces and claimed the pot.

That hand closes the gap between the two a bit. Jarvis has nearly 6.3 million while Filtz is up to about 4.6 million.
