Jarvis Survives

On a flop that read {10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, the player in the big blind, Matt Jarvis and the player on the button all checked around before the dealer produced the turn of the {q-Clubs}.

The big blind checked again to Jarvis, who led out for 2,500, leaving about the same behind. The button called, as did the big blind and then the big blind checked again on the river of the {8-Diamonds}. Jarvis checked to the button who bet the pot, forcing the big blind out of the way before Jarvis called all-in.

However, the button mucked and the 2010 WSOP Main Event eighth-place finisher doubled up after he tabled {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for the straight.
