MAIN EVENT ($1,320)

Donation for Craig Jones who first opened for 2000 and got called by the button Hai Le and the big blind. When the flop ran 3♦ 3♥ 2♠ , Jones continued for 3600, Le called, then big blind went over the top with a check-raise jam of 26,000. Jones would not be bullied out and called as Le folded.

When cards flipped on their backs, Jones showed A♠ T♥ , big blind with T♠ 6♦ , both continued to miss the turn 8♣ and river 5♥ for Jones' ace-high to hold.

Nikolai Gulaev kicked off the action with a 700 open on the cutoff and saw both players on the blinds - Craig Jones and Van Dan Nguyen, complete.

Three way action on flop Q♥ Q♣ 6♠ checked round to turn 8♦ , where Jones led for 1,200. Nguyen quickly shot out a raise to 3,000, pushing Gulaev out of the pot. Jones on the other hand, bumped it up to 8,500, and called 7,500 more following another raise from Nguyen.

With a tower of chips already in the middle, Jones check called a final all-in for 13,000 on river 2♦ , and shipped the pot with trip queens Q♠ 9♦ as his kicker ran in play against Nguyen's Q♦ 7♣ .
