Keeping Up With the Jones'

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Walt Jones opened to 5,500 from middle position, a player in the big blind defended, and the dealer spread {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}{5-Spades}. The player checked, Jones continued for 12,000, and the player folded {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts} face up. Jones pulled in the pot, and is sitting with 215,000 chips.

Jones is seated over in the poker room, and is joined atop the leader board by David Harden, Darren Elias, Adam Lippert, and Kenny Nguyen.

Harden just eliminated a player in a very interesting hand, where he limped preflop before back-raising to 18,500. His opponent called, Harden moved all in for effectively 30,000 or so on a flop of {3-}{3-}{3-}, and the player called.

Harden: {q-}{8-}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}

The turn was a deuce, changing nothing, but a {q-} completed the board giving Harden a leading pair of queens.

Harden dragged in the pot and now has around a quarter of a million chips.
