James Jarvis checked from the big blind on a board of 3?Q?2?9?. Hamza Wajahat was in the cutoff and also checked before Richard Scardina bet 2,100 from the button.
Jarvis responded with a small raise to 4,500 before Wajahat three-bet it to 10,000.
This was too much action for Scardina, who now folded to let the other two players battle it out. Jarvis, however, made the call and saw the 8? river.
This prompted him to lead for a sizable bet of 15,000. Wajahat thought it over for a bit before putting in the call. Jarvis showed Q?9? for top two pair and Wajahat tabled an insufficient A?Q? for just top pair.
This pot elevated Jarvis stack to over 100,000 chips. "We've got to stop him," someone at the table commented while Jarvis was organizing his new six-figure stack.
