Jones Plays It Safe

Lacey Jones

We've seen a lot of dubious plays with ace-medium on ace-high flops already today, so it was refreshing to see someone play the hand a bit more cautiously. Lacey Jones was in position for a flop of {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and called a bet of 600 from her lone opponent. The turn was the {7-Spades} and brought a bet of 1,200. Again Jones called. When the river fell {9-Diamonds} and Jones' opponent checked, Jones took the safe route and checked behind for a free showdown. Her {a-}{10-} which made a pair of aces was enough to collect the pot.

Jones is up to 54,000.
