Jesse Jones Steamrolls His Table

World Poker Association founder Jesse Jones is just running over his starting table. We caught three quick hands that Jones played, starting with a hand where his opponent raised to 200 preflop.

Jones reraised to 500 and his opponent moved all in for 1,500. Jones called.

Jones: {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}

When the board came {2-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, Jones took down the pot.

On the next hand, Jones called his opponent's all in for 875 on a board of {6-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{5-Spades}. His opponent showed pocket jacks, while Jones showed king-6 offsuit, and promptly spiked another 6 on the turn. The {8-Hearts} on the river gave Jones the pot.

On the final hand, Jones limped from late position and smooth called through the turn on a board of 9-9-9-ace. When his opponent bet 600 at an 8 on the river, Jones raised to 1,800 and got the call before turning over king-9 for quads.

With those hands, Jones is up to 18,000.
