If you're at all familiar with Aaron 'aejones' Jones, then you know he has his own poker training site, Leggopoker.com

Jones was just recently moved to a table with Chris Moorman and is seated just two spots to his left. When Jones sat down he had a relatively short stack, but he just doubled up and thanks to that, he's now at 18,500.

We got to the table with the board reading {8-}{j-}{8-}. Jones and his opponent managed to get all the money in the middle. Jones held {K-}{J-} and his opponent was drawing to just a {Q-} with {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {4-} on the turn and {j-} on the river to give Jones the winning boat and the double up.

"I had both of you dominated," said a table mate who claimed to fold {A-}{K-}. Unlucky for Jones who may have tripled up if he called.
