Cowboys Hold for Jones
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Seunghyun Nam raised to 60,000 in early position, Fabian Niederreiter flatted in the hijack, and Steven Jones three-bet to 230,000 in the cutoff. Nam then moved all in, prompting Niederreiter to get out of the way and Jones to call for 925,000 total to put himself at risk.
Steven Jones: K♠K♦ 
Seunghyun Nam: A♦Q♦
Nam picked up a little bit of help on the 8♣8♥Q♠ flop, but Jones was still in the lead with his kings. The board ran out safe for Jones with the 2♣ landing on the turn and the river bringing the 9♥ to secure him the double up.
