Jones Can't Keep up with Iribarren

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

With just 35 minutes left in the day Yerai Iribarren has taken the chip lead, the Frenchman is up to 170,000 after eliminating Ben Jones in a hand that Mat Frankland said took over 10 minutes.

By the time I arrived at the felt the flop was already out but Frankland told me after the hand had finished that Iribarren (cut-off) had opened Jones had three-bet from the small blind, Iribarren had four-bet to 11,000, Jones had clicked it back to 16,100 and Iribarren had called.

So there was over 32,000 in the pot by the time the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts} flop came down, Jones, who only had around 24,000 back took his time and then bet 5,500, Iribarren needed far less time to make the call. On the {6-Diamonds} turn Jones again went into the tank before moving all-in for what looked like just under 20,000. Iribarren snap called and rolled over {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} for flopped quads, Jones had {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and was drawing dead.

"Nice hand," he said as the {9-Clubs} completed the board.
