Jones Jumps Brongo's Jacks

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

After a large raise by Andrew Brongo, David Jones slid a stack of orange and green chips into the pot, enough to put Brongo all in. After thinking for only a few seconds, Brongo made the call and showed down his {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}, but saw the bad news when Jones flipped up {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}.

Flop: {8-Hearts}{K-Spades}{7-Clubs}

Jones' top set took a commanding lead and Brongo was left calling for a nine or a ten in hopes of picking up a miracle gutshot straight draw. The dealer ended the drama by turning the {Q-Hearts}, however, and Brongo was drawing dead. The meaningless {2-Hearts} on the river made it official and Brongo was sent packing. Jones chipped up to about 250,000 after the pot was shipped his way.
