The Blind Leading The Blind
Just before break, Jared Jaffee was seen joking (sort of) with his table. When he opened in middle position blind to 1,200, his tablemates were incredulous, but he explained he'd look at his hand if someone raised him or when the flop came. He was called in two spots and on the flop of A♣10♣3♥ he bet 4,500 after looking at his hand when checked to. Both players folded and Jaffee said, "Alright, you guys are playing great."
Only half of the players at the table knew who Jaffee was, so they remained in disbelief when Jaffee said, "I'll do it again." He did just that when it folded to him and raised to 1,200. Both the blinds called and they saw a flop of, A♣5♦8♣. Again, Jaffee waited it for to be his action before looking at his hand. This time he bet to the tune of 3,500 and both players folded. When the big blind folded he showed K♥K♠K♣ for one too many kings in his hand, mentioning what a fun time that was; In response Jaffee said, "No, this is fun." and he showed A♠A♦ and mucked the rest of his hand.
Jaffee then declared that he'd be doing the same until someone beat him in a hand, so he obliged with an early position open to 1,200 and was three bet by Claudius Ferris in middle position to 3,800. It folded back to Jaffee and he made the call after looking at his hand. This time the flop was 5♦9♣Q♥ and when Jaffee bet 2,200, he was promptly raised to 7,800. Jaffee made the call. The 7♦ fell on the river, Jaffee bet the pot for 24,300 and garnered a fold from Ferris. Jaffee repeated what he said before, "Alrighty guys, you're playing great..."
The next hand Jaffee was under the gun and he raised to 1,200 before the first card was dealt and he was again three bet by Ferris to 3,600. He made the call and saw a flop fan out, 5♣K♠4♦. Jaffee checked and called when his opponent bet 2,200. The turn was the K♥ and Jaffee said, "That's not me." before checking. He then called a bet of 5,000 to see the 3♦ on the river. This time both players checked and when the player in middle position showed a king, Jaffee mucked his hand and said, "No more, I surrender; now you have to do it." His opponent laughed and declined.
