Jones Surging
Cedric Jones raised to 2,500 from early position over a limp from Joey Taylor, who was on his direct right, and saw action fold around to the cutoff, who called. Action then folded back to Taylor and he put in chips to call to take postflop action three ways.
The flop came 
and Taylor checked to Jones, who counted out ten T1,000 chips one by one before putting them into the middle. He quickly received two folds and took down the pot.
Jones has been seen accumulating chips throughout the last two hours or so, but has now recently vaulted to what appears to be a stack of around 164,000 in chips, putting him as the likely chip leader nearing the second and final break of the day.
