Charity Check: Jamie Kerstetter Marathons for Weezer and Crouton

Everyone who has had a dog knows the huge void that's left when they're gone.

Jamie Kerstetter, a professional poker player with just over $600,000 in live earnings to her name, is no different.

Her family adopted an Animal Rescue Force dog after he had been saved from a kill shelter, in the typical way – with kids begging for a puppy – at 1.5 years old. Weezer had a long and happy life until he passed away at 15 years old.

Now, she has Crouton, a name recommended by @girlhowdy7 on Twitter because Kerstetter couldn’t decide between Yoshi and Colonel Mustard.
