Jarvis Drinks a Double
Perhaps Matthew Jarvis had also noticed that Raphael Beer has been the most active player at the table here in the early going, because Jarvis quickly three-bet all in when Beer opened another pot to 1,800. Allen Kessler debated a decision in the big blind, but he eventually folded to let Beer call the 12,000 required to put the November Niner at risk. With more than 25,000 in the middle, the cards were turned up:
Beer:
Jarvis:
"Jeez, I was gonna triple up with pocket tens," Kessler said. But alas, they were already in the muck. There was a seven on the flop for Jarvis, and the board of will allow him to stick around for a while longer. "I play so bad," Kessler concluded.
Beer is now on life support with around 10,000 chips left, and that's really a shame considering how awesome his name is.
